HUMAN HEALTH IS NOW OUR BIGGEST AND MOST URGENT SUSTAINABILITY PROBLEM

We are a growing coalition of biomedical scientists, charities, investors and systems leaders calling on the UN to recognise humans as biosystems that also require our protection.

HUMAN BIOsystems

our interconnected biological systems (immune, neurological, vascular, energy) that are under threat from repeated infections and other environmental impacts.

Like climate change, prevention is no longer enough.

We need an adaptation and investment strategy.

HUMAN BIOsystems PROTECTION

Our adaptation and investment strategy connecting human and planetary health, the missing foundation of workforce and economic sustainability.

THE RIGHT TO A CLEAN, HEALTHY, SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT.

HOW HUMAN BIOSYSTEMS PROTECTION INTEGRATES INTO EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL LAW: ONE FRAMEWORK

  • CLEAN

    PREVENTION

    Establish indoor air quality and infection control as environmental protection infrastructure.

  • HEALTHY

    TREATMENT + PROTECTION

    Build financial safety nets and treatment pathways for all infection-associated chronic conditions.

  • SUSTAINABLE

    INVESTMENT + INFRASTRUCTURE

    Fund long-term biomedical research proportionate to burden, governed by affected communities.

OUR FIVE ASKS TO THE UN

We call on the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to a Healthy Environment to:

  1. Recognise all human beings as biological systems requiring protection

  2. Integrate Human Biosystems Protection into Rights to Environment and Health

  3. Include infection-associated chronic conditions within designated vulnerable populations

  4. Establish international standards for workforce biosystems protection

  5. Support Member States in implementing prevention, treatment and investment frameworks
