The COVID-19 pandemic has presented numerous vulnerabilities within the healthcare system, public health emergency responses, governance, and within communities. Most importantly, it has taught us that our health and safety (including the planets') depends on collective action.

In this light, Health Care Without Harm (HCWH) Southeast Asia together with the Centre for Environment and Population Health (CEPH) and the International Network of Health Promoting Hospitals (HPH) invites you to attend a virtual gathering of healthcare and climate action leaders in Southeast Asia and the Pacific to tackle the lessons learned.

PROPOSED OBJECTIVES:

Discuss the link between climate, COVID-19 and health

Give an overview and highlights of hospital climate action

How to rapidly implement climate action in the age of uncertainty

The opportunity to strengthen collaboration and partnership in our region
