To address this threat, the WHO is committed to working with Member States, UN and other international agencies and the wider global health and research community to deliver a range of supporting tools and materials to help navigate ethical issues across the health (and health research) and climate change field and embed them effectively in relevant policies.
Professor John Coggon, a member of the Centre for Health, Law, and Society in the University of Bristol Law School, is one of the thirteen members of the WHO’s new Technical Advisory Group on Ethics and Climate Health who will serve in their personal capacities to represent the broad range of disciplines relevant to ethics and climate change and health.
