Purpose
As climate change increasingly affects our health and wellbeing, major medical education associations are calling for inclusion of topics related to health consequences of climate change into medical school curricula. In response, we have developed a series of curricular interventions that use planetary health framework to explore impacts of climate change from biomedical, clinical, and health systems science perspectives.

Methods
Climate Change Curriculum Workgroup, comprised of educators across departments, reviewed literature and climate change curricula from US medical schools. Prioritized list of topics was developed and used to map KPSOM curriculum to identify gaps/opportunities.

Results
We have developed an integrated Climate Change Week for M4 students, and successfully integrated 14 sessions across biomedical, health system, and clinical science courses, mapping our work to Educational Program Outcomes. The vignettes and activities prompted students to consider relationship between environment and health, centering on treatment, preventive care, and health system sustainability. Given the health equity mission of KPSOM, we focus on vulnerable populations, such as older adults, chronically ill patients, and other marginalized communities. We have now run the integrated Climate Change week twice, with preliminary pre/post survey data, complemented by anecdotal evidence, demonstrating students’ overall positive experience. It is important to note however, that some students felt the content in the first iteration of our 4th year session was somewhat emotionally overwhelming.

Conclusion
Integration was an effective method for curricular development; but we realized the importance of supporting students’ emotional needs when developing such curricula. It is critical that medical training incorporates knowledge and skills to recognize, treat, and prevent environmental health concerns. We hope our work thus far might serve as potential roadmap towards this.
