Strengthening the climate and health capacity of AfGH and SfGH

Action for Global Health (AfGH) and Students for Global Health (SfGH) in partnership aim to increase our respective health networks' (reaching more than 50 organisations), and members' (in 34 student branches) contribution to a shared climate and health agenda through capacity building, mobilising, and increasing collaboration between key stakeholders (our members, partners and other actors) and supporting synthesised advocacy and campaign events in the lead up to COP26.

In particular we will focus on increasing access to engagement with youth, global south and NMIC stakeholders on the intersection of health and climate.

We will partner to work with the 'Climate Change Coalition' to activate and engage cross sectoral partners including global south, LMIC and youth organisations around a shared policy agenda and build support for sustainable health and climate change strategies leading up to G7 and COP26.

We will actively participate in the climate coalition and build our and other actors' resources to activate and mobilise support for health and climate.

We will draw on the breadth and strength of our members collective experience and expertise to actively engage with and broaden understanding of the intersection between health and climate.
