The European Regional Local Health Authorities and the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) in collaboration with Veneto Region and North West of England Regional Health Office organised a conference on Climate change and the challenges for public health: engaging the regions that took place on 24 June 2008 at the Committee of the Regions in Brussels. A number of significant recommendations were raised and agreed by the participants in order to reduce climate change. The objective of the conference was to provide a forum for discussion on the health implications of the proposed Climate Action and Renewable Energy Package, by raising awareness of adaptation and mitigation initiatives undertaken at the local and regional level.
