Event Overview:
International leaders from the UK, Australia and Ireland are in Dublin to spark a wave of Sustainable Healthcare and Climate solutions. Join us for an enlightening and impactful session dedicated to sustainable healthcare and ethical finance solutions.

Our healthcare systems and societies face unprecedented challenges, but together, we can take small steps that make a huge impact. This event includes presentations, a Q&A session and an opportunity to connect and learn with like-minded people with an interest in accelerating and scaling sustainability solutions across our systems.

This session is designed to inspire and equip you with the knowledge and tools to catalyse effective transformation starting in our workplace and communities.

Why Attend?

Our healthcare systems face unsustainable challenges due to funding limitations, increasing and ageing populations and escalating risks from climate related impacts. 30% of healthcare practices are considered low value, providing little or no benefit to patients. By collaborating, we can deliver better, tailored care, reduce waste, and optimise health funding.

The health community now recognizes fossil fuels as significant health hazards, contributing to an estimated 5.1 million excess deaths per year globally due to air pollution. The healthcare system itself contributes over 5% of global fossil fuel emissions, exacerbating climate-related health impacts.

However, we have an opportunity to reverse this trend. By decreasing emissions and improving our patient care delivery, we can make a substantial impact. Join us to learn how small, collective individual shifts can lead to significant, positive changes in our healthcare system and for our communities.
