Climate change has been described as the greatest threat to global health. The recent COP28 Global Stocktake clearly demonstrated that the world is not on track to limit global heating to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels as set out in the Paris Agreement. Lower carbon ways of living have equally been described as the greatest opportunity for global health, but a rapid transition risks increasing already entrenched health inequities.
This plenary session will challenge us to consider how diverse sources of knowledge can accelerate action to protect and improve human health while not harming planetary systems on which all our health depends.
