2025 World Conference on Climate and Health: A Collaborative Effort to Address Health Adaptation Policies
The world is gearing up for a significant event aimed at shaping the future of healthcare and climate change adaptation policies. The 2025 World Conference on Climate and Health is set to take place from September 29 to September 30, and it promises to be a pivotal moment in our collective journey towards a healthier and more sustainable planet.
This conference is a collaborative effort, bringing together governments, the United Nations system, NGOs, and various other organizations. The World Health Organization (WHO), the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), and partners such as the Commonwealth Secretariat, Amref Health Africa, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands, and UNICEF are among those involved in the organisation.
The Conference's primary focus is on discussing policies for healthcare adaptation to climate change. The organisers aim to bring together representatives from various organisations to share insights, best practices, and innovative solutions to the challenges posed by climate change to global health.
The event is being organised by the Brazilian Government, with the Alliance for Transformative Action on Climate and Health (ATACH) and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) playing key roles. The Conference seeks to address the health benefits derived from international and national climate action, with a particular focus on the health benefits of climate action.
The 2025 World Conference on Climate and Health is an essential step towards preparing for the climate conference in Brazil. It is a testament to the global community's commitment to addressing climate change and its impact on health. This event is a beacon of hope, demonstrating that when we come together, we can make a difference.
