Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) Planetary Health Policy Team has released a proposal, “Recommendations for the 2023 G7 Hiroshima Summit: Advance Measures for Planetary Health in Line with Global Progress”.
The 27th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27) is currently being held in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Issues regarding the environment and health have been discussed at COP27, including the World Health Organization (WHO) is organizing side events.
At the G7, a summit conference of the leading industrialized nations held in Germany in 2022, featured climate and health were raised as one of the major agendas. International momentum is building for the promotion of planetary health.
In 2023, the G7 Hiroshima Summit (May 19-21, 2023) is scheduled to be held. We hope that the Japanese government to lead the discussions in Japan and overseas while keeping in line with the global community, as signs of social and economic recovery from the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic begin to emerge.
- Discussion Point 1: There is no room for doubt that the climate crisis and climate change will impact health. Starting with health professionals, all citizens must recognize that environmental problems are health problems and take comprehensive and inclusive actions to address them.
- Discussion Point 2: Health resilience to the climate crisis and climate change must be strengthened. We must promote prevention, preparedness, and response for events like floods, heat waves, and infectious disease outbreaks, as well as build environmentally friendly health systems.
- Discussion Point 3: Good examples of initiatives for planetary health have emerged on the prefectural or regional basis in the form of actions taken for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Expectations are high for efforts to share said practices, to expand them horizontally, and to disseminate them on the global level.
