UK Health Alliance on Climate Change
Mission
The UK Health Alliance on Climate Change brings together health professionals to advocate for just responses to the climate and ecological crisis, promote the health benefits that flow from those responses, and empower members and health professionals to make changes in their professional and personal lives to respond to the crisis.
The alliance coordinate action, provide leadership, and amplify the voice of health professionals across the UK. The organisation has produced a set of guiding principles for health organisations to demonstrate leadership and take steps to mitigate and adapt to climate change. These principles are those which organisations can aspire to achieve, adapting as required to suit individual circumstances.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
