The Practical Guide for Building Climate-Resilient Health Systems has been developed as part of the LIFE RESYSTAL project, which aims to develop resources that increase the climate resilience capacity of the European healthcare sector and related critical infrastructures. The Guide was created with insight from two pilot health systems but has been designed to be applicable to any European health system, regardless of their structure and size.
The Guide's purpose is to help organisations integrate climate resilience into healthcare planning. It is, therefore, aimed at those responsible for developing a Climate Resilience Plan for their health system or organisation. The Guide provides a clear, actionable path for health systems, guiding them from the initial stages of building climate resilience to the development of a comprehensive, implementable plan.
