The Sustainable Healthcare Community Hub is an online community to discuss all aspects of sustainability in healthcare, from improving clinical best practice to new ideas, innovations and green initiatives in healthcare.
The Hub area serves as a collaborative space for all members to exchange best practices, learn from each other, discuss the latest hot topics in sustainable healthcare and collaborate across various aspects of the CSH Platform. Whether you have insights on a topic in an existing network or innovative ideas for a new one we welcome you to join our community. Simply explore our network list or reach out to us directly.
Join us as a network lead or simply as a member and contribute your experiences, showcase project examples, exchange resources, highlight upcoming events and pose questions on sustainable healthcare to the community. Everyone's participation is encouraged and valued.
How we started
The Community Hub serves as the digital heart of CSH. Born out of a desire to share our innovative research and collaborate with clinicians, healthcare professionals and members of the public on changing the healthcare industry from the ground up, we recognised the need for a space where everyone could come together to make healthcare more sustainable.
We understood that to affect real, positive change within the healthcare industry, cooperation, collaboration and teamwork was needed across organisational, disciplinary, technical and cultural boundaries. This is why the Sustainable Healthcare Community Hub was started to cultivate and support and international community and build a shared identity, based on our common goal of changing healthcare systems for safer, sustainable alternatives to ensure a greener future for all.
Anyone is welcome to join the Sustainable Healthcare Community Hub, regardless of specialty interests. Whether you're passionate about advancing sustainability in healthcare or simply curious about the topic, this space is open to all.
We strive to share pertinent content from other networks here, ensuring relevance and accessibility. Upon signing up for your preferred network(s), you are automatically enrolled in the Sustainable Healthcare Community Hub and encouraged to actively participate. Your input is important to us.
