Workshop "From Theory to Practice - Improving Disaster Health and Climate Resilience" - Project RISK-E-SCAPE

Next Friday, May 17, 2024, the workshop "From Theory to Practice - Improving Disaster Health and Climate Resilience" will take place at the ASAU Auditorium of Fernando Pessoa University.

Climate change is having an increasingly visible impact on people's lives and health, affecting in particular countries with greater natural, social, economic, and political vulnerabilities. This event is a discussion forum focusing on Nepal and Bangladesh, bringing together various experts to address issues related with climate and natural disasters, as well as responses to health emergencies and humanitarian concerns. It will feature professionals and representatives from various NGOs and local, national, and international institutions, such as Passo Positivo, Rubicon Team, NIDISI, INEM, and the World Meteorological Organization.

Aligned with the European project RISK-E-SCAPE, CEPESE has partnered with this initiative promoted within the framework of the Master's in Humanitarian Action, Cooperation, and Development at Fernando Pessoa University.
