Healthcare professional championing clean air and planetary health
Dr Chinthika Piyasena, a London-based neonatologist, is an international advocate using cycling to champion clean air and planetary health. As a core member of Ride for Their Lives – a global movement of healthcare professionals – she cycles to spotlight the links between air pollution, the climate crisis and maternal and child health. Chinthika views the bicycle as a ‘powerful medical instrument’ for personal and planetary well-being.
“Chinthika is proud to have delivered heartfelt pleas from children to leaders, urging decisive action for a healthier, fairer future.”
