Climate Action and Health A COP28 Pre-Conference in Abu Dhabi

Nov 27, 2023 - Nov 28, 2023

Host:

NYU-Abu Dhabi Institute and Policy Committee of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology

Location:

Saadiyat Island, UAE

Our Focus: Health Benefits as a Pathway to Move from Climate Ambition to Climate Action
The overall aim of the workshop is to efficiently and effectively disseminate knowledge of health co-benefits, and their great potential when incorporated into climate action and negotiations at the COP, as well as to identify transdisciplinary, practicable policy-feasible ways of enactment in day-to-day government decision-making. To achieve this, the purposes of this Workshop would be multiple. First, we propose to hold this meeting in the week prior to the Conference of Parties (COP28) Climate conference to be held in the UAE at the end of November, 2023.
