The overarching objective is to share support, guidance, and feedback in service of the dissemination and implementation of good practices. As our collective understanding of the issues and opportunities related to climate change and health deepens, the ECHO format offer members of the healthcare community the support they need to navigate the nuances of sustainability work.
The Planetary Health & Sustainable Care ECHO (program) runs in cycles (~6-10 weeks) that involve weekly 1-hour virtual sessions. Each cycle (~2-4 cycles per year) focuses on a different theme and sub-topics, while each session features a topic of interest related to the cycle theme grounded by experts in the field and brought to life by case studies shared by participants. At this time, we do not repeat themes or topics. The ECHO engages a national cohort, serving a pan-Canadian audience: anyone in the Canadian healthcare community can join and is invited to all future cycles.
