Climate change and health – EuroHealthNet – annual seminar

Climate change and health – EuroHealthNet – annual seminar

EuroHealthNet is a key European connector of public health actors, innovators, researchers, and entrepreneurs. The annual seminar is a highlight of knowledge sharing for institutions across Europe in their efforts to promote best practices, build future policies, and to navigate shifting political landscapes.

The annual seminar 2025 focused on the impact of climate change on health and health systems. Clearly the many detrimental effects of climate change on animals, oceans, and nature is well known, but the ripple effects on both specific health conditions and by extension of the health systems built to alleviate them is less obvious yet – but the price in human suffering, money, and time is extremely high already and only growing.

So it was very timely – albeit not exactly encouraging – for NWA to participate in the annual seminar. And very happy for us also to now get the official proof of membership also!
