Manage episode 396363377 series 2862389
There are a number of reasons why we have to halt the climate crisis. One of them is public health. In this episode we discuss these important questions:
- How do we rethink the future of healthcare when tackling climate change is only one of many challenges?
- What impacts will the COP28 UAE Consensus make on climate actions in reducing carbon emissions of healthcare sectors across the world?
- As one of the most trustworthy voices in the society and the key players in providing healthcare services, what can doctors and nurses play a crucial part in accelerating global climate mitigations?
- How can high-income economies collaborate with low-income ones to share best practices in both spearheading a more affordable and equitable healthcare reform and decarbonizing healthcare services?
Today Zhao Ang has a conversation with Sonia Roschnik, Executive Director of the Geneva Sustainability Centre. The Centre, powered by the International Hospital Federation (IHF), was launched in 2022 in response to the need for hospitals and healthcare services to address climate change. Sonia has over three decades of experience in healthcare and sustainability policy.
