World Environmental Health Day

We are going through difficult times, due to COVID-19, declared by the WHO as a Pandemic. This Pandemic has come to demonstrate the vital role of the Environmental Health workforce worldwide to face this challenging time for all of humanity.
It is necessary to accept that there is an integral connection between the environment, health and the economy. It is therefore important to invest in healthy and green recovery, close to all communities, with the support of the Environmental Health workforce and with collaboration from the International Federation of Environmental Health. That’s why the IFEH choose this year theme for Environmental Health World Day 2021: Prioritizing Environmental Health for healthier communities in the global recovery.

We encourage all member organisations and regional groups, academic associates and national governments to set up initiatives and events to celebrate World Environmental Health Day.
