  • Race to Zero Dialogue on Climate and Health
    November 2020 Race to Zero Dialogues Concept Note Climate & Health Dialogue – for a healthy, resilient, zero-carbon recovery. DATE: November 9th Organised by the World Health Organization in partnership with leading health organisations Description: The climate & health day of the November Race to Zero dialogues will bring local to global actors together to place health and equity at the centre of ambitious climate action. Through a series of virtual events, hosted in rotation with regional partners throughout a 24-hour period, the day will envision how a healthy, equitable recovery from COVID-19 can drive rapid decarbonisation of the world economy. These events will present initiatives, case-studies and interventions for a healthy, climate-resilient and climate-just future across several priority areas of action: Adaptation & resilience; Nature; Energy transition; Zero carbon road transport; and Finance. Key messages: ● In recovering from COVID-19, both state and non-state actors now have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to drive a healthy and equitable recovery underpinned by rapid decarbonisation, by committing to healthy and ambitious climate plans, aligning finance streams with the Paris Agreement and the SDG’s, and prioritizing social equity. ● Health is both a powerful motivator and the core objective of climate action, with the health co-benefits of climate action key in leveraging ambition; bringing multiple benefits to local populations on short timescales; and contributing to a climate-just future based on resilience and equity. ● Climate commitments – in the form of ambitious Nationally Determined Contributions and Long-Term Strategies to the Paris Agreement; investments with win-win outcomes for emission reductions and human welfare; and commitments by countries, regions, cities, businesses and investors – need to be health-inclusive and health-promoting, to be in line with both our collective Race to Zero emissions and the imperative to protect and improve health.
