TODAY IN GLOBAL HEALTH | Climate Governance, Environmental Justice and the Health of Our Planet

On this episode of Today in Global Health, Oluwakayode and Dr. Ikechukwu Ngwaba welcome Dr. Pedi Chiemena Obani, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Bradford School of Law in the United Kingdom, for a compelling conversation at the intersection of climate governance and public health.A globally recognised expert in climate change governance, environmental justice, gender equality, and the human rights to water and sanitation, Dr. Obani brings sharp legal and policy perspective to the urgent question of how climate systems shape health outcomes for communities around the world. The discussion explores the frameworks, failures, and possibilities within global climate governance, and what meaningful action looks like when human health and environmental justice are placed at the centre.Thought-provoking and globally informed, this episode connects the legal architecture of climate policy to the lived health realities of people — making the case that climate governance is, at its core, a public health issue.
