1st Annual Summit Women Leaders for Planetary Health

On the occasion of the first anniversary of the Women Leaders for Planetary Health, a virtual celebration of the resilience of women and men working for a better world for all. You are hereby invited to participate in the virtual event on December 11, 2020.

The 2020 year has been disturbed by a devastating pandemic. While the whole of humanity is under the same storm, women are navigating these troubled waters at a clear disadvantage. The Global South, in particular, is suffering a disproportionate burden of multiple and connected crises: the health, climate, biodiversity, and pollution emergencies. It has never been more important to act against inequalities and for planetary health.

On the occasion of the first anniversary of the Women Leaders for Planetary Health, we will virtually celebrate the resilience of women and men working to promote a better world for all. The event is not only tailored to inform but also to inspire a new generation of planetary health ambassadors.

When?
Friday 11th December 2020
Dec 11, 1:00 PM – 6:00 PM GMT+1

Where?
