The three-day conference, will take place on 27-29 August 2014 and will bring together leading experts in the fields of health, and climate change.
The purpose is to articulate a shared vision of how the health sector can best prepare for climate change, and to give voice to the health benefits of climate actions. The outcomes will inform the UN Secretary-General's Climate Summit 2014 in September - as well as discussions on Climate Change and Sustainable Development taking place this year.
Further information will be made available in the coming months on the WHO website. In the meantime any enquiries should be sent to maierom@who.int
