Figure 5. Courses were ranked in terms of total estimated teaching time and total sub-learning outcome coverage. (1 is the highest rank), they were placed into three categories: Courses with both dedicated planetary health and sustainability teaching sessions; courses with either dedicated planetary health (PH) or sustainability (Sust) teaching sessions; courses with no dedicated planetary health or sustainability teaching sessions.
