How can we address the intersecting challenges of climate change and non-communicable diseases at once? 

In this first episode of the Intersections in Health, a new short podcast mini series, we delve into NCDs and the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and toxic pollution with  

  • Hans Bruyninckx , Commissioner on the Pan-European Commission on Climate and Health #PECCH, Professor of Environmental Governance at the University of Antwerp, former Executive Director of the European Environment Agency and 
  • Sinaia Netanyahu , Programme Manager at WHO/Europe’s Centre for Environment and Health. 

We discuss attacks on science and #misinformation, the art of knowledge translation, communicating complexity and uncertainty, super wicked problems and system transformation. Crucially, we explore what this moment asks of each one of us and collectively. 

Tune in and give us your feedback on the issues discussed.  

----------

Our next episodes will explore the intersections of NCDs and anti-microbial resistance and NCDs and population ageing. 

This short series is part of WHO/Europe’s count-down to the UN High Level Meeting on NCDs in September 2025.
