- Abstract
Leading medical journal, The Lancet, has named climate change the “biggest global health threat of the 21st century”. All the while this cross cutting issue does not receive much attention. IFMSA has set out on a mission to inform negotiators, press, fellow youth representatives, and everyone else who will listen, how we will experience the link between health and climate change as future doctors.
