Planetary health in medical education is an urgent and hot topic. Literature focused predominantly on why planetary health should be integrated in medical education and what should be covered. The authors recommend future research and education development to shift to how to do so, especially in evaluation and feedback. Research and education development needs to be conducted and reported on systematically and underpinned by educational principles. Lastly, it would benefit from perspectives beyond 'Western-based' ones.
