In line with the Africa CDC’s goal for a New Public Health Order, the proposed side event will address Planetary Health in Africa holistically. To ensure a sustainable future for the region, this interactive event will highlight the connections between public health, environmental health, one health, and human health. The event will also highlight effective sustainability-related activities, from locally produced health goods and ground-breaking research to the use of renewable energy and sustainable agriculture. We will also look at the role of youth empowerment, civil society involvement, and women’s leadership in promoting good health and environmental transformation.
