The European Climate-Health Cluster will be showcased at the ENBEL Conference on 12 October 2023, in Stockholm, Sweden.
The persistent challenge of global environmental change has given rise to new complexities for both human health and One Health. It not only exacerbates social inequalities, food and water security, but also escalates the transmission of infectious and zoonotic diseases. These increasing challenges ask for immediate action at both the European and global levels to mitigate the consequences of these threats. These global priorities underscore the urgency of enhancing the readiness of health systems to address the growing burden of climate change.
This session, focused on exploring the health effects of climate change, will provide insights into the ongoing research conducted within the 6 Horizon Europe projects comprising the Cluster. It will highlight their contributions in providing the necessary evidence, tools, and frameworks to address the threat that climate change poses to human health, global health, and One Health.
We invite participants to join us and engage in discussions about existing approaches and future opportunities, paving the way to address the climate-health agenda.
