Climate change is putting lives and livelihoods at risk. It is time to invest in solutions that help health workers and communities adapt. There is an urgent need to invest in climate adaptation, in a way that protects people's health. We are proud to be a part of the Adapt2Win org campaign in partnership with the Gates Foundation.
