The Planetary Health Cluster is a solutions-oriented, multi-dimensional health initiative focused on analysing and addressing the impacts of human disruptions to Earth's natural systems on human health and all life on Earth.
Formed by five projects under the HORIZON-HLTH-2023-ENVHLTH-02-01 funding call, the cluster officially launched on 2 July 2024 at a kick-off meeting in Brussels. The participating projects—GoGreen Next, SPRINGS, TULIP, MOSAIC, and PLANET4HEALTH—will work collectively over the next four years through joint deliverables, co-hosted events, and a shared strategy to promote evidence-based policies supporting planetary health.
The Planetary Health Cluster has recently launched its official website, marking a significant milestone in its mission. This platform serves as the central hub for all cluster-related information, offering stakeholders and the public easy access to the projects insights.
Website Features
Cluster overview: Learn about the projects that form the cluster, their objectives, research methodologies, and working groups.
News & updates: Stay informed about the projects milestones, research findings, and upcoming events. Subscribe to our newsletter to receive updates directly in your inbox.
Projects highlights: Gain insights into the work being carried out by the five projects.
GoGreen Next – Tackles climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation, with a focus on their impacts on human health in urban settings.
MOSAIC – Co-produces data and knowledge on environmental changes and their health impacts, supporting cross-border communities in East Africa and the Amazon.
PLANET4HEALTH – Investigates how environmental degradation affects human, animal, and ecosystem health.
SPRINGS – Examines the impact of climate change on waterborne diarrheal diseases.
TULIP – Explores the interconnections between antimicrobial resistance (AMR), plastic pollution, and climate change.
The launch of the website is just the beginning. Over the next years, the platform will expand, reflecting the evolution of our research and new findings. We invite researchers, policymakers, and the public to visit the website, engage with the content, and collaborate in shaping amore resilient future.
