Title: Planetary Health in Medical Education: From Rationale to Real-World Implementation

Date: Tuesday, April 28, 2026 – This webinar will be delivered in English

Presentation 1: 12:00pm-1:00pm Eastern, (9:00am-10:00am Pacific)

Presenter: Dr. Husein Moloo, University of Ottawa

Husein is a colorectal surgeon at the Ottawa hospital who has a background in quality improvement and patient safety. Through this he has developed an appreciation for the intersection of quality improvement and planetary health. He is currently the Director of Planetary Health for the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Ottawa and Physician for Planetary Health at the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

Overview: Planetary health is increasingly recognized as foundational to human health, yet its integration into health professions education remains uneven and fragmented. This session will briefly frame planetary health as a core competency for physicians, highlighting its relevance to patient care, health systems, and professional responsibility. The webinar will explore practical approaches to embedding planetary health content across undergraduate health professions education, postgraduate training, and continuing professional development. Particular attention will be paid to pragmatic and scalable solutions. Participants will be introduced to concrete examples, implementation considerations, and lessons learned from existing initiatives. The session will emphasize actionable steps educators can take within their own institutional contexts.

Objectives:

  1. Describe the relevance of planetary health to health professions education and contemporary clinical practice.
  2. Identify opportunities to integrate planetary health concepts across undergraduate, postgraduate, and continuing health professions education.
  3. Explain how quality improvement frameworks can be leveraged to operationalize planetary health education within training programs and clinical settings.
  4. Recognize common barriers and facilitators to implementing planetary health curricula in health professions education.
  5. Apply at least one practical strategy to advance planetary health education within their own educational or clinical context.
