Climate change, health and policy development: An introduction

This slide deck represents a training resource for policymakers to support institutional learning on the health impacts of climate change. A modifiable template is available to enable updates and changes given context-specific needs across settings.

This presentation has been designed for policymakers who work on climate policies and programs outside of the health sector, but who make decisions that impact health outcomes. It provides foundational information on climate change, human health and policy development and identifies interventions across systems and sectors that can improve health outcomes.
