Practical guide for building climate -resilient health systems

The Practical Guide for Building Climate-Resilient Health Systems has been developed as part of the LIFE RESYSTAL project. The project’s goal is to develop resources that increase the climate resilience capacity of the European healthcare sector and related critical infrastructures. The Guide was created with insight from two pilot health systems but has been designed to be applicable to any European health system, irrespective of their structure and governance. The purpose of the Guide is to help organisations integrate climate resilience into healthcare planning, and is aimed at those responsible for developing a Climate Resilience Plan for their health system or organisation. A Climate Resilience Plan outlines the system’s level of climate resilience capacity and the measures to be implemented to enhance that capacity.
