Lightning Talk as part of the Climate Justice Symposium for Transforming Education (chesc.org/cjste/). The Planetary Health Report Card is a metric-based institutional advocacy tool developed in 2019 by medical students at the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine. The report card is divided into five sections—curriculum, research, community outreach and advocacy, support for student-led initiatives, and sustainability-- each comprised of actionable metrics with point tiers corresponding to levels of planetary health and climate justice engagement. Annually, student-led teams elect to complete the report card in collaboration with faculty and administrators. In doing so, they join a community of like-minded students from medical schools all over the world, sharing ideas for effective institutional advocacy, relating struggles, and sharing examples of successful proposals to address metrics. Since 2019, the initiative has grown from a grassroots pilot at two bay area medical schools to an international initiative consisting of over 60 medical schools in four countries. This presentation will explore how a metric-based, student-led tool can be implemented to hold institutions accountable, breaking down the immensity of the climate crisis into discrete, actionable steps for curricular reform.
