The impacts of climate change have a vast array of ramifications for human health. These effects are felt unequally in different parts of the world, with economically vulnerable regions in low and middle-income countries being more likely to be severely affected.
The Dalberg public engagement leadership program has empowered Changemakers who recognise that the climate crisis is a health crisis and are working to avert catastrophic climate breakdown in a way that allows human health to flourish. The program was designed and intended to bridge the gap between the two sectors and build momentum toward a healthier world through systemic solutions.
The program offered tools to expand the Changemaker's understanding of the climate and health intersection and effectively increase the impact of their solutions through systemic pathways. The curriculum challenged Changemakers to design the endgame of their work and understand the needs that public engagement could fill, such as effectively reaching the vulnerable and most impacted by climate change within their communities and building a movement to initiate and sustain change.
