8.E. Workshop: One health approach to gain Youth engagement toward environmental issues

Abstract

Abstract Humanization of care is involved in promoting healthy behaviors including harmonization with environment, implementing an educational model of “one health” approach. A strong emphasis is placed in our project on strengthening environmental awareness of the young generation through education and other forms of youth engagement. We built an educational project that involved schools (almost 200 students). Students had a “one -health “core curriculum focused on Medicine and environmental issues; spill over and environmental issues; green economy end mathematical models affecting environmental changes; architectural issues involving environment. After skill building classes Young students focused on three main issues that will be presented during the workshop: A liquid biopsy model to detect eventual pollutants A study concerning individual behavior impact A green sustainable architectural model The three issues were developed as proposal for: A model of Health vision based on multidisciplinary A Youth stand point concerning environmental actual proposal to implement the Green deal Liquid biopsy is a new diagnostic concept useful to collect and analyze sample from different humans and animal matrices able to investigate the molecular features by blood, saliva, and any other body fluids which show a source of potential biomarkers. Further, particular strategies on the possible ways of regenerating the center of the cities to make it resilient to critical environmental impact, and models to redevelop the suburbs were developed. Finally, individual behaviors can affect either health care or environmental goals. The add value of this work may be to realize through citizen activism a powerful tool for climate action, sustainable development and environmental protection through Youth engagement toward an health model that include environmental determinants. Their stand point may be meaningful in order to gain proposals for the European Green Deal, according to the sub topic 1 objective: “specific educational programs, school curricula, trainings, networking activities and exchange of good practices in the area of climate change and education for sustainable development. Thus, it is becoming increasingly important to study and to derive from different approach results regarding the connection between environment, humans and animals and with a new diagnostic genomic not-invasive approach. Key messages Youth engagement toward health and environmental issues may contribute to citizen activism. One health model is consistent with a multidisciplinary approach to care and environmental goals.
