WHO Europe's 7th Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health took place 5-7 July 2023 in Hungary. Our Executive Director, Marieke Verschuuren participated. Her reflection after the first day: "you could feel the urgency and the drive of the policymakers, international organisations, civil society organisations and other stakeholders present to take the actions needed to protect and improve the health of humans, animals and the environment." On the last day of the conference the countries of the WHO European Region adopted the Budapest Declaration, pushing action to enhance environment and health. Learn more about this conference here.
