"The climate crisis is a health crisis. We must urgently scale efforts to build resilient and inclusive systems that protect peoples’ health from climate change, including to finish the job on ending the HIV, TB and malaria epidemics." DYK if healthcare was a country, it would be the 5th largest greenhouse gas producer? And even though 1 billion people are treated at facilities that do not have electricity, health centres use nearly 3 times more energy than commercial buildings. Despite this, the health sector can play an important part in addressing #ClimateChange. From scaling smart health to managing healthcare waste more sustainably, see how we're tackling health and climate challenges with governments, communities, and partners like The Global Fund and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. https://go.undp.org/4Nt

Do national human rights institutions or NHRIs hold the key to the Sustainable Development Goals? In countries where NHRIs are strong and compliant with international standards, they advance the #GlobalGoals, empower individuals and communities, and inform the thinking on going ‘beyond GDP’ as a measurement of progress. We've partnered with NHRIs in over 100 countries to engage them in development efforts and build their capacities to deliver amidst increasing demands. Our new blog explains why NHRIs globally need more investment to leave no one behind. https://go.undp.org/4pn
