Human, animal and environmental health constitutes a critically important issue in relation to earth system governance (ESG), with far-reaching equity and justice implications.
This ESG Working Group on Planetary Health Justice is established to:
- support transdisciplinary and innovative research collaborations between researchers across disciplines, institutions, agencies and countries;
- facilitate the transfer of knowledge and lessons learned, taking into consideration contextual and location-specific factors;
- provide a platform for researchers from the ESG community along with policymakers and practitioners to identify research needs; and
- progress research efforts that extend the existing ESG planetary justice research framework by applying a health lens.
To date, the Working Group has published a special issue in the ESG journal and has developed a three-year Roadmap to support its work in advancing ESG in seven priority
areas.
The Working Group is convened by Dr. Annabelle Workman, Senior Research Fellow at Melbourne Climate Futures, Melbourne Law Schooland the School of Population and
Global Health at, the University of Melbourne, and Ms Giorgia Dalla Libera Marchiori, ARC Laureate PhD candidate at the Planetary Health Equity Hothouse, School of Regulation and Global Governance at the Australian National University.
