The 2023 Report of the Lancet Countdown draws on the expertise of 114 climate and health scientists, engineers, economists, political scientists, public health professionals and doctors from 52 research institutions and UN agencies from around the world to provide its most up-to-date and comprehensive assessment yet of the state of health and climate change globally. 

It will be launched ahead of the 28th UN Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC (COP28), which will – for the first time – feature health as a key theme, with an official Health Day and a climate-health ministerial. Our report contributes to the evidence needed to inform the negotiations, and deliver truly health-protecting climate change action.  

The virtual global launch of the 2023 Report of the Lancet Countdown will take place from 14:00 GMT on 15 November and will bring together a diverse group of inspiring speakers and guests including world leaders, technical experts, young activists and those experiencing first-hand the effects of our heating world. 

We look forward to seeing you at the event.
