Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) invites you to join us for a special conversation about how the climate emergency is affecting the communities we serve. From the Sahel and Horn of Africa to South Asia to Central America, we are providing medical care for people who are already suffering from the effects of climate change and environmental degradation. Our teams are responding to medical needs caused by cycles of drought, flooding, and extreme weather events. We are treating climate sensitive diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and cholera. This year we are responding to a surge in malnutrition across multiple countries, with various political and economic issues compounded by environmental factors.

To reduce our own carbon and waste footprint, MSF has adopted an Environmental Pact and pledged to cut carbon emissions by half by 2030.

Join us for this online event to learn more about MSF’s evolving approach to planetary health, which recognizes that human health depends on the health of the planet. Stay tuned for more information about our guest speakers.
