Pim Martens obtained a M.Sc. degree in Biological Health Sciences (1991) and a M.Sc. degree in Environmental Health Sciences (1993) at Maastricht University. He did his PhD on applied mathematics (entitled: Health impacts of climate change and ozone depletion: an eco-epidemiological modelling approach) at the RIVM and Maastricht University, which he obtained in 1997. In 2008 he became professor of Sustainable Development and in 2022 professor of Planetary Health at Maastricht University. His second PhD in Biological Sciences (entitled: Sustanimalism: a sustainable perspective on the relationship between human and non-human animals) he received in 2020 from Aberystwyth University.[1]

Career

During his PhD, Martens worked on the project ‘Global Dynamics and Sustainable Development’ (RIVM), after which became an assistant professor at the Department of Mathematics, Maastricht university. He worked for several months as a Fulbright New Century Scholar within the programme 'Health in a Borderless World' at Harvard University (Centre for Health and the Global Environment).

Martens is winner of the Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel-Forschungspreis. Pim Martens has been a Leverhulme professor at Aberystwyth University (Wales), a research professor at ETH Zürich, (Switzerland) and Leuphana University Lüneburg (Germany), and visiting scholar at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (UK), Heidelberg University, (Germany), and Shandong University (China). He was also a senior fellow in the Ethics of the Anthropocene Program at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and he has been a member of the Dutch Health Council and the Dutch Royal Academy of Science’s Planetary Health Committee[2].

Since 2021 Martens is the dean of the University College Venlo and he holds the chair Planetary Health at Maastricht University since 2022.[3]

Research

Martens was one of the first researchers to quantify the relationship between global climate changes and human health, by developing the MIASMA model (MIASMA: Modelling framework for the health Impact Assessment of Man-induced Atmospheric changes.) in 1998. He developed the Maastricht Globalisation Index and contributed to the field of Sustainability Science. He introduced the concept of ‘sustanimalism’[4] and ‘scientivism’[5], and is currently project-leader and principal investigator of several projects related to planetary health, sustainability science, indigenous perspectives[6], and human-animal-nature relationships.

Pim Martens is a scientivist and founder of  AnimalWise[7], a “think and do tank” integrating scientific knowledge and animal advocacy to bring about sustainable change in our relationship with animals.

Publications

Martens wrote several books about the effects of climate change on our health, sustainability science, globalization and 'sustanimalism'. He also published two documentaries on Indigenous Perspectives on climate change and human-animal relationships.
