Nominate an Expert for Workshop Committee: Integrating Public and Ecosystem Health Systems
to Foster Resilience
Deadline: December 10, 2021
The National Academies seeks nominations for committee members to organize a workshop,
Integrating Public and Ecosystem Health Systems to Foster Resilience: A Workshop to
Identify Research to Bridge the Knowledge-To-Action Gap. Ecosystems form the foundation
upon which society can survive and thrive, providing food, clean water, clean air,
materials, and recreation. These connections between people and their environments are
being stressed by human-driven actions (e.g. climate change, pollution, resource
exploitation, and others) that can alter ecosystems and the services they can provide. If
ecosystems are not resilient in the face of these stressors, the subsequent ecological
changes may affect human health.
This workshop will bring together transdisciplinary researchers and practitioners
addressing overlapping public and ecosystem health issues to identify opportunities and
research needs to better integrate these areas in policy and practice. The workshop will
include discussions about current frameworks and local to global efforts to integrate
public and ecosystem health, key elements needed in a knowledge-to-action research agenda
on this topic, and ways in which an actionable research agenda could be advanced. More
detailed information about the project can be viewed on the project
website<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%…amp;reserved=0>.
We are seeking nominations for committee members with broad expertise in public health,
conservation, sustainable development, climate change, ecosystem ecology, environmental
science, veterinary health, social and behavioral sciences, and communication (e.g.
community engagement, collaboration). Researchers and practitioners with experience
working at local to international scales, and those familiar with existing frameworks
(e.g., Planetary Health Alliance, One Planet, One Health, ecosystem services) are
particularly sought.

The National Academies are committed to enhancing diversity and inclusion in order to
strengthen the quality of our work. Diverse perspectives contribute to finding innovative
approaches and solutions to challenging issues. We encourage the nomination of a diverse
set of experts, including candidates from underrepresented races, ethnicities, and gender
identities; people with disabilities; and a range of career stages. Self-nominations are
welcome.
This workshop is sponsored by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.
