This symposium will offer an expansive view of health and sustainability, posing questions and connections meant to inspire and interrogate ideas about what it means to cultivate a community committed to supporting health, well-being, and sustainability for all. Scientists, philosophers, and other speakers will raise and provide perspectives on critical questions including: How does the climate crisis impact human and planetary health, especially among the most vulnerable populations? What are some of the perspectives, ideas, and solutions we need to ensure health, well-being, and sustainability for all, now and into the future?
