Climate change has become one of the most pressing global challenges of the 21st century. As the world marks the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement, global climate governance has entered a critical stage of deepened collaboration. Balancing emission reduction and green, low-carbon transition with the imperative to safeguard and enhance public health has become a major concern for the international community. In this context, the 5th World Health Forum will be held on November 1–2, 2025, in Beijing, under the theme “Climate Change and Health: Responsibility, Governance, and a Shared Future for Humanity.”
Hosted by Tsinghua University and organized by the Vanke School of Public Health, the Forum aims to confront the mounting health risks posed by the climate crisis, foster stronger synergies between emission reduction targets and health benefits, and explore innovative approaches to global climate and health governance.
The Forum will bring together representatives from leading international organizations, as well as senior officials, renowned scholars, and industry leaders from around the world. Through high-level international dialogue, the Forum seeks to pool cross-disciplinary expertise, elevate the priority of climate and health issues on the global agenda, promote interdisciplinary research, and advance the vision of a global community of health for all.
