Maastricht University - UCV

Academic Institution 

The growing awareness of the health risks of the changes in the Earth's natural systems calls for further research into the interdependencies of linked human and natural systems. The causal links between environmental change and human health are complex because they are often indirect, displaced in space and time, and dependent on a number of changing forces. Current research at UM integrates and models the development of climate change solutions with health risks and other challenges for local communities. UM also models and analyzes local ecosystem services in combination with health effects. We do this through integrated modelling, GIS approaches and big data analysis. Obtaining a thorough and integrated understanding of this complex and still undervalued nexus nature-human, and critically evaluating suitable solutions, will be necessary in the coming years, and will form the core of this research cluster at Maastricht University.

The harmful effects of climate change on efforts to eliminate malaria have been evident for years. Rising temperatures, changing rainfall patterns and extreme weather events complicate efforts to control the disease, and put many millions more at risk of illness and death.

The Planetary Health Equity Hothouse addresses three major and interconnected challenges – poor health, social inequality and climate change. The cycle of Planetary Health inequity is aggravated by the global consumptogenic system, which is characterised by institutions, policies, commercial activities, norms and behaviours that encourage and reward excessive production and consumption of fossil fuel-reliant goods and services that are unhealthy and inequitably valued and distributed.  The goal of the Hothouse is to generate new knowledge about how to transform the consumptogenic system towards PHE goals. We do this through a governance-focused study: examining the political economy of the consumptogenic system and Planetary Health inequity; identifying the necessary inter-sectoral policies and business practices to promote Planetary Health equity across economic, food and energy systems; revealing how powerful actors, ideas and institutions enable or hinder the development of intersectoral policy and business practices that advance PHE, and ultimately we will identify strategies that socially-oriented actors can use to promote PHE goals. We welcome cross disciplinary, cross sectoral and cross boundary collaboration in research, education and engagement.
