In this event, the first indicator report of the Lancet Countdown in Europe will be launched, published in the Lancet Public Health in October 2022. The event will discuss the latest evidence on how climate change is undermining the foundations of good health, as well as detailing the health benefits of a rapid and robust response to climate change in Europe. We also highlight the gaps the new Lancet Countdown in Europe initiative fills at the local and regional level, and discuss the new Lancet Countdown Europe policy brief. By bringing together leading academics and policymakers with wide-ranging expertise and experience, we provide a platform to contextualise climate change and health in a European context.
BSC researcher Rachel Lowe is the Director of the Lancet Countdown in Europe.
