Embedding Health in Climate Negotiations

Climate change is the greatest health threat facing humanity.

With growing recognition of this reality, governments need the skills and knowledge to integrate health evidence into climate policymaking and negotiations.


This course helps you understand the links between climate change and health. You’ll identify where and how to bring health into climate negotiations so that you can help protect people's health in a changing climate.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Explain how climate change and health are connected, including how health is reflected in the UNFCCC process

• Discuss existing initiatives for embedding health into the climate negotiations

• Investigate specific entry points for embedding health in climate negotiations 

• Identify practical steps you can take to make a difference within your area of influence
