The policy brief titled “Strengthening Climate-Resilient Health Systems: Opportunities and Challenges,” published by ReBUILD for Resilience in 2024, addresses the growing threats climate change poses to global health systems. Highlighting the impacts of climate-induced heat-related illnesses, extreme weather events, and shifting disease patterns, the brief underscores the urgent need for health systems to adapt while also reducing their own greenhouse gas emissions. Drawing from a webinar hosted by ReBUILD for Resilience and insights from three Oxford Policy Management projects, the brief offers practical lessons on integrating climate considerations into health policy and implementation, aiming to guide improvements in creating resilient health systems.
