Putting environmental sustainability and planetary health into practice: through leadership standards for health professionals

All BMJ Leader Environmental sustainability articles are open access for 2 months to coincide with COP.

This one looks at examples of how professional standards could include environmental sustainability. It uses the example of the FMLM's Leadership Competencies for health professionals - see the supplementary table for how they could explicitly reference the environment while still ensuring leadership competence. 

There are many examples to draw from. We can use these examples to encourage our professional societies to include reference to environmental sustainability.
