X_4_09 — Public Health and Sanitation
Public health and sanitation — organized efforts to prevent disease, promote health, and prolong life through collective action — have arguably saved more lives than all other medical interventions combined. Clean water,
X_3_25 — Antibiotic Resistance Crisis
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) — the ability of microorganisms to survive exposure to drugs that once killed them — is one of the most serious threats to global public health in the twenty-first century. [KEY FINDING] A
ZH_4_03 — Star Myths and Constellation Stories Across Cultures
Every human culture that has observed the night sky has organized the visible stars into patterns — constellations, asterisms, and star groups — and woven them into narrative frameworks that encode cosmological beliefs,
