2026 Our Planet, Our Health Convention
February 28 – March 3, 2026
Arlington, Virginia & Online
The 2026 Our Planet, Our Health Convention will convene health professionals, researchers, community leaders, and policy experts to tackle one of the most urgent issues of our time: the growing impact of climate change on health. Hosted by the Medical Society Consortium on Climate and Health, this event will take place both in-person and virtually from March 1-2, 2026, with an optional pre-convention partner day on February 28 and educational visits to Congress on March 3. The deadline to register for these visits is January 19.
Held in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, the convention offers a unique opportunity to build community, earn up to 11 CME/CE credits, and shape a tiered local to national agenda—at a critical time when climate disasters are worsening and federal action is stalling.
