Healing begins with a conversation.

And highlighted the need for affordable, accessible, youth-friendly, and stigma-free care.

Together, we must ensure that young people’s voices remain at the center of health policies and programs.

Last week, we held our first Climate-Health Café 🌿☕️

Grateful to everyone who joined, your voices and ideas made it powerful.

To those who couldn’t make it this time, we missed you & we’d love to have you at our next session in the coming months. The conversation continues 💚

[WeCare Initiative @Wecare_or]

One thing that stood out from our #ClimateHealthCafe is that Climate Change is unavoidable, Many communities in the Global South are facing the harshest effects, yet they contribute the least to the problem.

We spoke about policies, accountability & why climate justice matters.

[WeCare Initiative @Wecare_or]

The most powerful part of our #ClimateHealthCafe was the voices in the room

People shared what they’re experiencing:floods after heavy rains, extreme heat & rising diseases

While human activity is a major cause it also means we have power & responsibility to be part of solution

[WeCare Initiative @Wecare_or]

Today we had our first #ClimatehealthCafe 🥳 Unpacking what climate change really is and how closely it is tied to our health and our daily lives.
