Protecting health from climate change

  • The World Health Organization (WHO) designated April 7th as World Health Day and is taking this day as an opportunity to draw the world’s attention to the importance of health protection from the negative effects of climate change.
The phrase “protecting health from climate change” tries to focus world debates on climate change and health.  In selecting this theme, the WHO recognizes that climate change is posing ever growing threats to global public health security.

Thanks to a greater collaboration, the world community will be better prepared to face sanitary problems related to climate change in the world today.  Examples of measures being taken are a stronger prevention and control of infectious diseases, safer uses of water and better coordination of sanitary action in emergency situations.
