Solutions for the Planet's Interlinked Challenges

WWF, Fuller Science Series Overview: Planet's Interlinked Challenges Series.
The world is facing an unprecedented array of interconnected environmental, social, and economic crises. Threats to biodiversity, food security, water, climate, and health are intertwined, yet policies often address each in isolation. Actions taken to solve individual problems in parallel may undermine one another through trade-offs or unintended consequences.

Seminar Two: Health
Human health is valued universally as an important metric of the quality of life, the quality of what we do, and how we assess. Health systems and health policies interact with other elements of the nexus and can strengthen the response to climate change, both on the mitigation and the adaptation front. This seminar will focus on how poor outcomes for other nexus sectors translate to poor human health.

Speakers: Ro McFarlane, Discipline Lead in Public Health, University of Canberra and Lynne Shannon, Principal Researcher, Marine Sustainability Lab, University of Cape Town (Lynne shares a case study featuring the H.E.A.R.T. method - Heart Energy Achieving Real Transformation).
