Climate Change & Health: Disproportionate Impact on Women

08/04/2025 - From 19h30 to 21h30 - Public

Join us for an eye-opening discussion as we unveil the hidden health crisis emerging from climate change. From fertility challenges to chronic diseases, learn why women face unique vulnerabilities in our changing climate.

As global temperatures rise, so do the health risks for women worldwide.
In drought-stricken regions, women now walk up to 6 hours daily to fetch water.
In flood-prone areas, contaminated water sources are driving unprecedented reproductive health challenges.
As temperatures rise, so do pregnancy complications and maternal health risks.

The climate crisis isn't just an environmental emergency, it's becoming a women's health catastrophe.

This groundbreaking event brings together two distinguished experts to explore the intricate connections between climate change and women's health.

• Dr. Seetha Gammanpila, with extensive experience in obstetrics, gynecology, and child development, will share insights from years of direct patient care.
• Alongside, Jordania Lugiery, a pioneering expert in ecotherapy, will help you understand how nature can help you to improve mental and physical health.

The event will be facilitated by Dr Audrey-Flore Ngomsik, CEO of Trianon Scientific Communication, Climate change strategist.

Beginning with an interactive quiz that challenges common assumptions.

Then, through expert presentations and a dynamic panel discussion, we'll explore:

• How does climate change affect women’s overall physical and mental health?
• What are the unique challenges women face in accessing healthcare during climate-related disasters?
• How are environmental changes influencing chronic diseases and other non-reproductive health issues in women?
• What role does gender inequality play in exacerbating the health impacts of climate change on women?
• How can nature-based solutions, like ecotherapy, help women adapt to the mental and physical challenges posed by a changing climate?

Whether you're a healthcare professional, environmental advocate, or concerned citizen, this event offers crucial insights into one of the most pressing health challenges of our time.

Join us as we uncover the hidden health crisis emerging from climate change and explore solutions for a healthier future.
