The Climate Webinar Series explores how climate change reshapes humanitarian risks for National Societies, aiming to deepen understanding of interconnected climate-health hazards, promote adaptive resilience, and turn technical knowledge into practical community action.
Session 1 : Understanding the Changing Risk Landscape
Demonstrating how climate change acts as a systemic risk multiplier throughout the disaster management cycle, and how siloed and reactive actions are less effective in mitigating risks and impacts for communities.
Session 2 : Climate Change and Diseases
Demonstrate how climate change influences infectious disease risks through both direct environmental changes and indirect impacts arising from disasters, illustrating how interconnected crises amplify community vulnerabilities and health outcomes.
Session 2 : Climate Change and Disasters
Demonstrate that the effects of climate change, particularly that of compounded risks and extreme weather events, is amplifying vulnerabilities, prolonging exposure and impacting coping capacities of communities and humanitarian organisations.
