Transformativer Wandel ist notwendig, dringend und möglich
Um unser Überleben und Wohlergehen sicherzustellen, ist es dringend und notwendig, Ansichten, Strukturen und Praktiken hin zu einer gerechten und nachhaltigen Gesellschaft anzupassen. Ein solch transformativer Wandel sei herausfordernd, aber möglich, sagt der Weltbiodiversitätsrat IPBES am Mittwoch. Über 101 führende internationale Expertinnen und Experten aus 42 Ländern haben die zugrundeliegenden Ursachen des Biodiversitätsverlusts und die entscheidenden Hebel für eine systemweite Transformation untersucht. Demnach brauche es einen grundlegenden Wandel, im Ausmass vergleichbar mit jenem der Industriellen Revolution, um die Erhaltung und nachhaltige Nutzung der biologischen Vielfalt weltweit und die nachhaltigen Entwicklungsziele zu erreichen.

Advance care planning: New thematic page for healthcare professionals
Advance care planning (ACP) provides a framework for discussing future healthcare decisions, documenting patients’ preferences and ensuring that these are respected when needed. Together with the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH), the Swiss Academy of Medical Sciences (SAMS) is committed to further strengthening ACP in Switzerland. This is not only the responsibility of specialised professionals: all healthcare professionals can initiate conversations about future health situations and support patients through an ACP process. To facilitate this, SAMS has published a new thematic page for healthcare professionals.
