September 19, 2023 | The Climate Group | Dr. Julian Watkins & Dr. Marcos Moreno
Climate change remains one of the greatest threats to global public health, and communities that are already vulnerable are being hit the hardest. With extreme heat and weather disasters becoming a regular occurrence around the world, the need for equitable and reliable access to healthcare is more important than ever. There is no overarching solution – having a meaningful and long-lasting impact often requires local insights and tailored approaches to meet the unique needs of different communities.
“We have to really sit down and listen to the people who have the knowledge.” – Dr. Watkins
