The Ministry of Health, Ministry of Environment Climate Change and Forestry, Climate and Health African Network for Collaboration and Engagement (CHANCE), Africa Research and Impact Network (ARIN), National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA), Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) and the African Medical and Research Foundation (AMREF) are partnering to host a Pan-African Conference on Environment, Climate Change and Health: Science to Policy to be held in Nairobi, Kenya, from 21st – 24th October 2025.
The conference will target and bring together new and established transdisciplinary researchers, environmentalists, health and climate policymakers, donors, the private sector, and other stakeholders to share and synthesize the latest environment, climate, and health information, showcase environmental-climate change-health technological innovations, build capacity for science-policy translation, and share knowledge on best policy implementation practices for effective climate action, health resilience, and economic development.
The conference will provide a platform to advance dialogue and amplify impact on transdisciplinary fields of environment, climate, and health. We will also invite community-led organizations to network and discuss strategies to promote environmental conservation, climate and health literacy, including the role of indigenous knowledge systems.
