With the effects of climate change bearing down increasingly on the lives and livelihoods of people everywhere, the world is coming to the realization that the climate crisis is a health crisis.
Turning this realization into action requires a step change in the type and depth of
collaboration between health, meteorology, and other relevant sectors to deliver
coordinated and timely interventions that can save and improve lives, based on
accurate information about weather, climate, pollution and other environmental factors. In
short, it requires effective climate services for health.
This report celebrates pioneering efforts driven by local leadership and vision. We
need to learn from them and build a global movement to advance sustainable, high-
capacity collaboration that materially improves health outcomes.
