\n

The International Hospital Federation\u2019s Geneva Sustainability Centre will hold a masterclass in October, in Lisbon, Portugal,
\nto teach strategies for healthcare leaders to implement and manage sustainability practices.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Recent research found that the\u00a0healthcare sector is responsible for over 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions\u00a0\u2013 an increase on previous estimates. Reversing this trend is a long-term challenge that will likely require multi-year commitments and the transformation of almost every aspect of how hospitals operate.<\/p>\n

Hospital leaders have a key role to play in ensuring patients can access healthy futures through low-carbon, resilient, healthcare systems. In this masterclass that is tailor-made for healthcare leaders, participants:
\n\u2022 Gain fundamental knowledge\u00a0of the relationship between human and planetary health \u2013 and your role as a hospital manager in driving the net-zero transformation.
\n\u2022 Develop effective strategies and discover tools to monitor progress as you build resilience into healthcare delivery, based on successful examples from hospitals across the world.
\n\u2022 Benefit\u00a0from\u00a0global perspectives\u00a0by exchanging and networking with peers in a select group of international hospital managers, facilitated by sustainable healthcare experts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
