Dear CHE Colleagues:

CHE Partnership call: Report from the Cancun Climate Change Talks: NGOs Promote Health and Partner for Future Action

RSVP for this call

Despite scant and discouraging media coverage of the United Nation's Climate Change talks in Cancun last December, a number of NGOs and health and medical groups can attest that COP16 was in fact good for human health. Movement towards greater inclusion of health in global climate change decisions at the meetings in Cancun was in large part catalyzed by energetic new projects and partnerships among NGOs based in Europe, Africa and the U.S, and the increasing evidence of both the health impacts from climate change and the increasingly quantified health benefits of ambitious climate action.  

CHE is pleased to host on February 10, 2011 at 10 a.m. Pacific / 1 p.m. Eastern
three active leaders in that process, Dr. Pendo Maro (Health and Environment Alliance/Health Care Without Harm, Europe), Dr. Lynn Wilson (SeaTrust Institute) and Pastor Peters Omoragbon (Nurses Across the Borders) in this teleconference call to share how the momentum from Copenhagen to Cancun is being carried forward into 2011 towards collaborative activities promoting health in the run up to COP17 in Durban, South Africa and beyond. In particular, the speakers will focus on ways CHE partners and anyone concerned with these issues can become involved in projects that support putting health at the heart of climate negotiations and decisions.

Featured speakers:
Dr. Pendo Marco, Senior Climate and Energy Advisor, Health Care Without Harm (HCWH) and Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL)

Dr. Lynn Wilson, Executive Director, SeaTrust Institute

Pastor Peters Omoragbon, Chairman, Board of Trustees (Nigeria/USA), Nurses Across Borders   

The call will be moderated by Elise Miller, CHE Director. The call will last one hour and will be recorded for archival purposes.
