Canada's COP26 Health Programme Committment - What's Next?

Canada signed onto the WHO’s #COP26 Health Programme, thus formally committing to climate resilient and low carbon, sustainable health systems. Now what?

CASCADES, in partnership with a number of Canadian healthcare organizations and associations, including GreenCare, invite you to join this event, which is one of 3 being organized in the coming weeks.

Speakers Dr. Courtney Howard and Dr. Nick Watts have the insiders’ perspective on what this commitment means for Canada. Dr. Howard was instrumental in the movement to encourage Canada to sign on to the Health Programme and will speak to the significance of this milestone, how we got here, and what comes next for Canada. As the Chief Sustainability Officer of the National Health Service (NHS) England, the first health service in the world to commit to reaching net zero, Dr. Watts has first-hand experience with what it means to meet sustainability commitments through system-wide change. Join us as we start to explore what it will take for Canada to translate this commitment into on-the-ground transformation.

Participation is free but registration is required.
