Toward climate resilience in Israel’s healthcare system: decision-makers' perspectives
The study underscores significant gaps in climate resilience within Israel's healthcare system, particularly the lack of a coordinated, government-led framework for climate adaptation. Although local efforts exist, they remain fragmented and unsustainable without national leadership and funding. Key recommendations include developing a comprehensive national health and climate plan, securing dedicated funding, and increasing awareness/training for healthcare professionals.
