The health sector is covered in the National Climate Change and Low Carbon Green Growth Strategy (NAS, 2016) and the National Action Plan for the implementation of the Green Growth Strategy (NAP, 2016). In terms of adaptation priorities, the NAS focuses on measures and actions for 13 priority sectors, including public health. Progress towards meeting this priority is supported by a health study from the 2016-2020 NAP, Development of environmental monitoring activities by conducting research studies of factors with the potential to adversely affect public health, which has an estimated overall cost of €2 million.
At the subnational level, the Strategy and Plan for mitigating and adapting to climate change of the Municipality of Mediaș includes a concrete analysis of the impact of climate change on sectoral areas, including health.
