Survey on Climate and Health Education in Medical Schools
CLOSED for 2024-25. Please check back in the fall to join us in shaping the future of medical education!
We invite faculty, academics, and course coordinators at medical institutions to participate in a brief 5-15 minute survey assessing climate and health education in medical training.
Your participation, regardless of the presence or absence of climate and health education at your institution, is invaluable.
Developed by the Global Consortium on Climate and Health Education (GCCHE) at Columbia University, in collaboration with the World Federation for Medical Education, this survey informs a new indicator in the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change(link is external and opens in a new window) and is essential in order to inform national, regional and global investment in climate and health education.
Your responses will be kept confidential and anonymous. This study protocol has been approved by Columbia University Institutional Review Board (IRB) review committee (protocol number AAAU7307). The GCCHE will collect and analyze the survey data in a secure platform and it will be anonymized prior to reporting. No Institution name will be reported.
Why Your Participation Matters:
- Your responses will contribute to tracking the global integration of climate change into medical curriculum.
- Your insights will help us inform efforts to improve the availability of climate and health educational resources.
- Your voice will help us empower the next generation of medical professionals to tackle climate-related health challenges.
Who Should Complete this Survey:
- Faculty, course directors, and/or staff who design or teach climate/planetary health content.
- Members or leads of education/curriculum committees or offices.
- Associate or Assistant Deans.
The survey is closed. Thank you for being a part of this important initiative!
