We need your help: WHO Study on Environmental Sustainability in Medical Curricula

Dear all,

My name is Maja Milkowska and, within Health Care Without Harm Europe, I am working on a WHO project on environmental sustainability in medical curricula.

Being aware of the Centre's efforts in terms of providing education on sustainable healthcare, I would like to invite those of you that are involved in such trainings to participate in a web-based survey focusing on aspects of environmental sustainability within trainings for healthcare professionals taught at your school. The study will provide an opportunity for you to share your experience and knowledge about the availability and content of trainings in the field of environmental sustainability that your universities offers. Your participation will enable us to examine the landscape and map out the main components of such trainings in medical curricula within the WHO European Region. This will be used to identify gaps and propose ways of raising awareness towards greater environmental sustainability in medical programmes.

To find out more about the study and proceed with the survey, please click on the following link that will redirect you to the questionnaire: https://goo.gl/forms/D98pB0i4cZdLPrVl1

I will be very grateful if you could also share this information with your colleagues and any other individuals involved in medical training at different universities not only in the UK but around Europe.  

Please do not hesitate to contact me at maja.milkowska@hcwh.org should you have any questions.

Thank you very much for your time.

Maja Milkowska
