We are recruiting medical students (year 2 and above) interested in climate change, sustainability and green healthcare for this year’s Planetary Health Report Card (PHRC).

What is the PHRC? The PHRC is an institutional advocacy tool that aims to evaluate medical schools on the different aspects of planetary health and use this to inform local change. For more information check out the official PHRC website: https://phreportcard.org/ where you will find ICSM’s previous reports.

Timeframe: Aiming to kickstart the project in early November and complete it by early January 2024. This is not a low-commitment project, you should expect to spend around 10-12 hours overall working on this.

There are opportunities to publish and submit posters to conferences, however, this is not guaranteed as it will require a lot of additional work and commitment outside of the report card. However, the report will be published on the PHRC website. Last year, our poster was accepted by the SHARE conference!

Please email Meenakshi Veeramani (mv4318@ic.ac.uk) with your details and a brief explanation why you are interested in getting involved in this project.
