This unique conference will enlighten health professionals and students on climate change’s impacts on human health. The symposium will not only educate participants but inspire motivation and provide the tools to develop solutions to counteract the health effects of climate change.
Nurses, physicians, surgeons, social workers, professors, and thought leaders from various settings will share their wisdom and experiences. Talks will cover a variety of topics including sustainability, climate science, health policy, and climate ties to various aspects of health and medicine.
