Prudence Foundation, International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), Climate Resilience for All and Save the Children invite you to participate in an interactive session discussing the role of partnerships to advance work on climate and health.

Details of the interactive event

The COP28 Declaration on Climate and Health calls for scaled up funding on climate and health including that of private funders. Progress on climate adaptation is slowing on all fronts when it should be accelerating to catch up with rising climate change impacts and risks, according to a new United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) report. 2023 showed us the shattering of month by month record high temperatures. Accelerated investments in climate and health solutions from all sectors is critical to avert catastrophic health impacts and prevent millions of deaths. There is opportunity for business community and private sector to support and amplify this work in addition to funding.

On the sidelines of the World Health Assembly, the session aims to discuss and highlight the role of public-private partnerships in advancing work on climate and health, with a focus on Asia and Africa:

  • Challenges, approaches and solutions at intersection of climate & health
  • The role of philanthropy and business on the landscape of solutions
  • The multiple levers that the private sector can use to accelerate solutions
  • Innovative philanthropy-public-private partnerships

The Panel Discussion will be joined by:

Kathy Baughman McLeod
