Brazil, with its rich natural resources and ongoing efforts toward sustainable development and addressing social inequality, plays a critical role in advancing planetary health. The Amazon rainforest, its rich biodiversity, and vast water resources are essential for environmental sustainability and the health and well-being of populations locally and globally. We aim to collaborate to safeguard these resources while fostering systems that enhance societal well-being and healthcare outcomes.

Social Common Capital (SCC), as proposed by Japanese economist Hirofumi Uzawa, offers a framework for sustainable societies, integrating environmental preservation with public health and social equity. Following last year’s symposium in Indonesia Jakarta, the Research Division of Social Common Capital and the Future at Kyoto University is convening this symposium in Brazil to strengthen our partnership and explore the transdisciplinary impact of SCC on planetary health. We look forward to learning from Brazil’s experiences and jointly advancing sustainable and health-promoting practices on a global scale.
