    New report: Climate Change in Wales: Health Impact Assessment
     

    The World Health Organisation Collaborating Centre   on Investment for Health and Well-being within Public Health Wales, has published a new report. This is what they said – 

    This health impact assessment (HIA) is a strategic and comprehensive appraisal of the potential implications of climate change on population health in Wales. It provides robust evidence to inform public bodies, agencies and organisations in their preparations for, and responses to, climate change and climate change events. It aims to support adoption of policies and plans that can promote and protect health and wellbeing for all in Wales and in those population groups and geographical areas particularly at risk of negative impacts.

    The report can be accessed HERE. 

    I will also upload the report to the files section, if you browser does not let you get through to the report. Take a look and let us know what you think by replying here. 

    The WHO Collaborating Centre develops, collects and shares information and tools on how best to invest in better health, reduce inequalities, and build stronger and more resilient communities in Wales, Europe and Worldwide. For more information, click here.
