dc.descriptionAs the climate crisis escalates, evidence is mounting about its growing harm to human health and well-being. Indeed, this relationship between climate change and human health is now one of the defining challenges of the era, and, at current trajectories of change, it will remain so for some time to come. The World Bank has launched a new Climate and Health Program whose aim is to slow and blunt the force of climate change’s dangerous collision with human health. The program pivots on three foundational components that will: assess country climate-health vulnerabilities and impacts to design country-tailored solutions; scale up investments to build low-carbon resilient health systems; and build and deepen partnerships at global, regional, and country levels to multiply and magnify these efforts. The Bank will use the full range of its financing instruments for both adaptation and mitigation activities.
