Revolutionizing Health: WHO and UN Guidance on Health and Environment Updated for 2024

The Compendium of WHO and other UN guidance on health and environment has been updated for the year 2024, offering a comprehensive collection of resources aimed at improving health by promoting healthier environments. This valuable resource covers over 500 actions and provides a framework for considering health and environment interventions across various sectors such as air pollution, water, sanitation, climate change, chemicals, radiation, and food systems.

The guidance in the Compendium is organized based on the principal sectors involved, the level of implementation (national, community, healthcare), the type of instrument used (taxes, infrastructure), and the category of evidence. The information is drawn from a wide range of documents and presented in a simple and systematized format to make it easily accessible to users. The Compendium is regularly updated to ensure that users have access to the latest WHO and UN guidance on health and environment.

The target audience for this valuable resource includes decision-makers with a focus on health and environment as well as individuals who support them such as mayors, staff in ministries, and UN country staff. The Compendium was developed collaboratively by WHO along with UN Environment, UNDP, and UNICEF with the goal of reducing diseases caused by environmental factors and saving lives. Users can access additional resources such as infographics to further support their efforts in creating healthier environments.
