Today’s AU workshop on maternal + child health & climate resilience was full of powerful stories from midwifery care, climate emergencies, fatherhood, to future health priorities. Grateful for all who shared and humbled by the task ahead of us. 🌏💚 #ClimateHealth #Maternalhealth #ChildHealth

🤰👶🌏 We invite you to our online workshop exploring climate-resilient maternal and child health in Australia.

The online workshops are offered in two options:
Option 1: 📅 Date: 22 May 2025
Option 2: 📅 Date: 24 July 2025
⏰ Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 Noon

Our workshop (1 of 5), " EXPLORING CLIMATE RESILIENT MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH IN AUSTRALIA", went well today. We learned a lot & have more to learn. What was special was the human connection & the sense of purpose, which was more meaningful considering the current political turmoil.

Sometimes, the best way to cheer myself up is to observe bees doing their wonderful work.

In 2025, we’re hosting five workshops across Australia, in-person and online, to establish research priorities for advancing climate-resilient maternal and child health. The first workshop is in person (registration details in the flyer)

During 2024, with colleagues across the Western Pacific, we developed a free Western Pacific Climate & Health Responder Course in collaboration with the Global Consortium on Climate and Health Education (GCCHE). That course registration is open to all professionals interested in climate & health.

Fantastic, MedInfo2025 will extend its submission deadline to the 10th of January 2025. So, if you are into medical informatics (or climate and health informatics, in my case) - it would be great to see you at #MedInfo2025
