We simply could not be more excited for this newly launching Institute, which hosts the PHA secretariat! This is a major boost of momentum for the health and well-being of generations to come.
So happy to have been working on this project during my internship at the @ph_alliance ! Please reach out if opportunities you know are not showcased 🌍🌱

🚨In our new @PLOSGPH Opinion we raise concerns about potential "#healthwashing" (i.e., the misuse of health to advance self-interest whilst contributing to poor health outcomes) in the climate change space.🌏

No politician or policymaker around the world will be able to say "I didn't know." We have strong scientific evidence on #AirPollution.
@DrMariaNeira sets the tone with powerful opening remarks on #NCDHardTalk: Toxic air is driving non-communicable diseases.

As #COP28 reached an agreement earlier this morning, the health community reflects on what the outcome decisions mean for the health of our people and our planet. Thank you @GCHAlliance for coordinating this 🙌🙌Read the full press release including a quote from @amit_ankhi & I⬇️
At #COP28, human lives are being negotiated.
If COP28 is to deliver for health as promised, we need ambitious commitments across mitigation, adaptation, loss and damage and finance. #FossilFuelPhaseOut
While there was a lot of attention on #HealthDay, the next hours at COP28 are crucial for health.
To protect health, #COP28 must deliver a strong outcome. This includes an equitable phase out of all fossil fuels, and an ambitious outcome on adaptation and finance.
Statement from the Alliance of Small Island States @AOSISChair on the latest draft: "We will not sign our death certificate. We cannot sign on to text that does not have strong commitments on phasing out fossil fuels."
#COP28
If not done right, the GST could be an imminent death sentence for many. We need our leadership to deliver an effective and strong final text ASAP at #COP28
"The current text is insufficient and disappointing." Minister @ABaerbock announces, aligned with the EU, stating that key elements including fossil fuel phase out are missing in the current GST text - on the second to last day of #Cop28
At #COP28 there were a record number of health professionals! The infographic below estimates the participation. Honored to be part of the inspiring health community, pushing for healthy, just and ambitious #COP28 outcomes

Grateful to know so many passionate young healthcare workers, scientists and activists for a better world.
Canada is one of the 134 countries to have signed the #HealthDeclaration. We need to integrate health as a critical argument to leverage more impactful climate decisions for this #COP28, specifically for the phase-out of fossil fuels in the context of protecting the #R2HE.
Great to hear @MichaelBonser1, 🇨🇦’s lead negotiator, talk about the growing importance of #health considerations in #COP28_UAE climate negotiations.
Thanks to @yseu7t for the great question to the Canada delegation!
@CAPE_ACME
I had promised Minister @s_guilbeault an #EmissionsCap 🧢 if he delivered a policy framework at #COP28. I'm a woman of my word.
Now we need his word to drastically accelerate implementation. Every day 🇨🇦's oil & gas industry is left off the hook is a day too many. #cdnpoli

Historic COP28. We want even more. For our health. @WHO
"The 1.5-degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels.
Not reduce.
Not abate.
Phaseout."
