European Declaration on Heat and Health

After the large increase in mortality due to the strong heatwaves in June and July 2026 in Europe, the Planetary Health European Hub has addressed the European Union authorities in a Declaration on Heat and Health that calls for a radical change in ambition and resources.


Join the Planetary Health European Hub in calling on European Union authorities to act in response to the heat and health emergency.
