The World Health Day
The Human Network and the IRO Organization held an event to raise awareness of the effects of climate change on human health and welfare on April 7 in honor of World Health Day. Academics, environmentalists, civil society leaders, and officials of pertinent government foundations all attended the occasion. The event's goal was to identify the interdisciplinary concerns that connect climate hazards to human health. Dr. Ali Arif, a lecturer and researcher at the KISSR, opened the event with a presentation on how people are exposed to risk factors in their homes, places of employment, and communities. He specifically discussed air and water pollution, radiation exposure, chemicals, agricultural practices, climate change, and, in particular, the composition of particulate matter (PM) and the role of physical characteristics.
The second part of the event featured a presentation by Namo Majeed, the head of the IRO Organization, on the topic of how NGOs and environmentalists collaborate to establish an advocacy roadmap. The event was viewed as a consultative conference of specialists.


Climate Justice Roadmap
IRO Organization hosted a workshop on how to create a road map for promoting climate justice as part of the Climate Change Defenders Program CCDP in collaboration with the Human Network in presence of numerous academics, leaders of civil society, and environmentalists. Many topics that make up a realistic framework for civil society groups and other relevant parties to work on climate change and its potential effects on various aspects of human life were addressed during the event.
The event's main themes included the current situation in Iraq and the Kurdish Region, stakeholders and actors, and potential intervention. The audience members improved the presentation by contributing to each section of the roadmap framework and providing feedback on the issues brought up. The IRO Organization will produce a draft roadmap, which the participants and other pertinent partner organizations can review later. The created roadmap will be made available to the public and adapted as part of the CCDP initiative.
