Why should I care about the world?
Lecture synopsis:
We’ll explore why caring about our world, our environment, society, and each other is crucial from the perspective of a healthcare professional and how issues like climate change, pandemics, and poverty are not just headlines but things that will affect the health of every single person. It might seem like the world is too big for one person to make a difference, but the truth is that everyone’s actions matter. Whether it’s climate change, global health crises, or poverty, these issues affect you and importantly, you can be part of the solution.
