Join this webinar tomorrow to learn more about the critical role of climate information services can play in strengthening health systems. This also marks the launch of several developed materials supported under the USAID Climate Adaptation Support Activity (CASA): 1. A series of case studies exploring how climate information services have been successfully used to address climate risks in USAID Global Health programs. 2. A technical report summarizing the potential of climate information services better to inform health surveillance, preparedness, and long-term planning. It includes the challenges and opportunities to integrate CIS within USAID programming. 3. Self-paced learning materials for USAID featuring key learnings from the above.
EVENT: As climate change threatens lives and progress on global health outcomes, climate information services (CIS) can fill data and information gaps and build health system resiliency to prepare and adapt to climate impacts. Join our webinar on October 30 from 8-9 AM ET to discover how integrating CIS in health systems can help protect communities in the face of climate change.

This course has provided me with valuable insights into climate change and global health. Understanding the various dimensions of climate change, the impacts it has on health, and the strategies that can be implemented to mitigate these effects has been highly instructive for me. The course offered a broad perspective on how to reduce the negative health impacts of environmental changes caused by climate change. #UNCC #WorldHealthOrganization
