The 2021 WHO Health and Climate Change Global Survey report provides a valuable snapshot of the overall progress governments have made in addressing the health risks of climate change. The findings on key health and climate change indicators aim to provide insights into the level of implementation of policies and plans; identify evidence gaps; and better understand the barriers to achieving adaptation and resilience priorities in the health sector.

The survey is sent to national health authorities, who in collaboration with other relevant ministries and stakeholders, provide updated information on key areas including: leadership and governance, evidence, implementation, and finance.

The 2021 global survey report provides an update to the 2017/2018 survey. National-level data from the survey are presented in the Health and Climate Change Country Profiles. 95 countries participated in the 2021 survey. Data from 7 key indicators from the global survey are published here. Please see the 2021 WHO health and climate change global survey report for the full survey findings.
