Protecting wetlands for our common future. Nearly 90% of the world’s wetlands have been degraded since the 1700s, and we are losing wetlands three times faster than forests. *The Convention on Wetlands will meet in July in Zimbabwe to agree a three-year plan for the conservation and defense of these valuable ecosystems.

Please join an exciting presentation by Assoc. Prof. Andreas Vilhelmsson, author of the informative Climate Medicine. His lecture provides a broad introduction to how climate change affects health, the  environment, society, and healthcare.

Strengthening a just transition for a sustainable future means making sure our move toward low-carbon economies benefits everyone, especially the most vulnerable. In other words, decarbonization and economic transformation should go hand in hand with policies that fight poverty, reduce inequality, and open up opportunities for all.
