Ecosystems form the foundation upon which society can survive and thrive, providing food, clean water, clean air, materials, and recreation. These connections are being stressed and may have implications for public health, many of which are not well characterized. This has created a gap in our understanding of interconnected public and ecosystem health systems and how ecosystem resiliency may affect public health. The National Academies will organize a workshop to inform the development of a research agenda aimed at bridging the knowledge-to-action gap related to integrating public and ecological health to foster resilience.
