Environmental stewardship and health systems: Indigenous-centred reflections

Redvers N.; Zavaleta-Cortijo C. · Nature Reviews Nephrology (2026) · DOI: 10.1038/s41581-026-01049-1

Resumen

Environmental sustainability movements have faced criticism for their often mechanical, anthropocentric approach that maintains standards of overconsumption within healthcare and has perpetuated planetary harm. Environmental stewardship, as practised within many Indigenous communities, instead focuses deeply on the interconnectedness of human and planetary health, and offers insights from which the health community can learn. © Springer Nature Limited 2026.
