This two-day workshop will bring together scholars from across the globe to discuss the impact of climate change upon human health.

The workshop will also explore questions relating to social justice, human rights, development, and local, regional, national and global governance. A major objective of the workshop is to foster collaborative interdisciplinary international research networks for future projects at the interface of climate change and global health.
