The proposal is to bring together professionals, researchers, students and representatives of institutions to discuss how these three dimensions of health can be considered together. Among the topics of programming are climate change, extreme events, animal health and city vulnerabilities.
The concept of Unique Health recognizes that people, domestic and wild animals, plants and ecosystems are interdependent. From this approach, the meeting aims to stimulate regional dialogue and integration between different areas in the search for healthier and more resilient communities.
Experts will discuss climate and health in cities
The program of lectures begins at 7 pm, with the veterinarian Leonardo Napoli, who will address the theme “Animal Health and Unique Health”. Specialist in Environmental Education and Animal Law, he works in the areas of clinical, expert and animal risk management in disasters.
