Lectures and seminars Climate Health Talks: Shaping local climate health resilience in municipalities and county councils in the face of extreme weather events
Welcome to the first Climate Health Talks of 2025!
To build health-related climate resilience requires a multi-level policy approach. In this lunchtime webinar we will explore the direct and indirect effects of extreme weather events, such as mental health problems, cardiovascular diseases and respiratory diseases. We will look at how municipalities and county councils can take action on these issues and discuss governance challenges and best practices in Sweden.
The webinar is held in English
