Quotes from 2023 conference participants and speakers
The 2023 ENBEL conference provided a powerful opportunity to listen to what is working, where, and to learn how we can quickly act on implementing the climate and health solutions that we urgently need. The conference brought together an impressive cross-section of policymakers, researchers and practitioners, which is vital for the scale and effort that is demanded of us all. Congratulations to the ENBEL consortium for their vision and leadership to successfully conduct this conference; it is a critical element for our applied research global community, Kathryn Bowen, Professor of Environment, Climate and Global Health at The University of Melbourne, Deputy Director of Melbourne Climate Future and IPCC Lead Author AR6.
The ENBEL conference was unique in that it brought together diverse actors in the climate and health science communities, which have few opportunities for exchange...It is important to the climate change and health communities to continue to have an opportunity to come together to ensure health is at the centre of action to address the climate crisis. Cathryn Tonne, Research Professor at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health, co-director of the Lancet Countdown for Health and Climate Change in Europe
The conference and the panel of great speakers far exceeded my expectations. Without doubt, the #ENBEL2023 conference on Connecting Health and Climate Change has been the most fruitful conference I have had the chance to attend. Tomáš Janoš, Postdoctoral Researcher, Masaryk University
The #ENBEL2023 conference served as an excellent forum for the exchange of ideas regarding the global impact of climate change, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in addressing these critical issues. The presentations and discussions influenced my approach to addressing the connections between health and climate change, particularly within the context of my home country Kenya", said Martha Oguna, University of Washington, Kenya.
