WHO and AstraZeneca Fund Training for 10,000 Doctors on Climate Change Health Impacts, Including Mental Illness
Oct 20, 2024, 02:22 AM
The World Health Organization (WHO) and AstraZeneca, alongside global health leaders, are funding leading universities to train 10,000 future doctors on the impact of climate change on public health. This initiative aims to address the increasing risks of cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and mental illnesses attributed to climate change. Climate change is increasingly recognized as a significant public health issue, with its effects already being felt by vulnerable communities. Experts are urging policymakers and researchers to focus on climate resilience efforts to mitigate these health impacts. The European Network on Climate & Health Education (ENCHE) is also involved in this effort.
