Launched on International Nurses Day our Hexithon runs until the end of May. NiUK and Hexitime have created an Innovation Sprint with Nurses and Midwives leading the way. We have chosen Planetary Health and Sustainability as our first big challenge.
We all saw how our environment improved when we collectively made changes to our carbon footprint during the pandemic and we can no longer ignore the damage we are doing to our planet.
Healthcare, probably contributed around 4-5% of global Co2 emissions which is more than aviation or shipping and as health care professionals we need to lead by example. We also know that the people harmed by the environmental footprint of healthcare are often those that do not benefit from it. We have an opportunity to act now to form healthy models of care that protect our health and our planet.
We all know just how inspirational nurses and midwives are when we are passionate about a mission and we are excited to see what we can achieve when we have a room of likeminded individuals.
We can’t achieve this without your help and we need allies, supporters and partners to be able to change this. Please do share our mission, be involved and let us be part of the solution and not the problem.
