REsearch & Data
Since its inception, the Planetary Health Report Card (PHRC) has generated a wealth of data tracking the integration of planetary health metrics into health professional education worldwide. We believe that transparent data is the foundation of accountability and the catalyst for meaningful curriculum improvement.
This hub serves as the central resource for our ongoing research initiatives, data governance, and collaborative opportunities. Whether you are a student researcher, a faculty member, or an external partner, this page outlines how we manage, share, and utilise the insights gathered from our annual report cards.

Prohibited Uses: Data cannot be used for commercial purposes without written consent, political campaigning, or in ways that misrepresent the data’s integrity.
Research Permission: While general report card data can be used with proper attribution, specific research using PHRC metrics requires prior permission from the PHRC Board of Directors to avoid duplication of efforts.
