Risk and Resilience: Adopting a Climate Lens to Strengthen Health Services & Systems
Engage with a panel of experts in a discussion on strengthening health systems against climate change impacts.
Join RTI’s Center for Climate Solutions for a webinar on strengthening health systems against climate change impacts. During the discussion, our engaging panel of experts will delve into practical ways that we can bolster health services to help people, communities, and nations mitigate the diverse effects of climate change.
Presenters will share insights from transformative initiatives across sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. They’ll explore how the Philippines is applying a climate lens to its community health services, discover the ways in which climate change is shaping USAID health programs across sub-Saharan Africa, dig into the innovative approaches of the USAID Inform Asia activity as it tracks climate-related impact on malaria elimination in Thailand and Laos, and understand the vital role of off-grid energy in powering health facilities throughout sub-Saharan Africa.
