Organized as part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Week and in conjunction with the Partnership for Inclusive Innovation, this event will explore the intersection of energy and public health impacts.

As climate change worsens, the importance of adopting clean energy solutions is imperative. However, we have a responsibility to ensure that the benefits of clean energy are experienced equally, and also do not lead to unintended adverse health outcomes. Hear from experts on sustainable building technologies, air quality, and the economics of clean energy and health discuss the challenges and opportunities before us as the energy landscape undergoes monumental shifts.
