The World Health Organization (WHO) has launched its first-ever regional strategy for climate and health action.

The landmark plan was unveiled this week during a major health summit in Fiji, one of the Pacific island nations most acutely threatened by climate change.

Health ministers and delegates from 38 countries across Asia and the Pacific are gathering in Nadi for the 76th Session of the WHO Regional Committee for the Western Pacific, where the 2025-2030 Strategic Plan for the WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health (ACE) was formally adopted.
