4th One Health Seminar at the Federal University of Uberlândia: Climate Emergencies, Operationalization, and Local Governance

Organized by the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU) in alignment with World One Health Day, the 4th One Health Seminar will take place on November 3rd and 4th, 2026. This event addresses the urgent challenges posed by climate change, extreme weather events, and their impacts on global and local health. Designed around a multidisciplinary and cross-cutting framework, the seminar brings together academia, public administration, and civil society across two evening sessions (6:30 PM – 9:30 PM BRT). Through structured roundtable discussions, experts and community leaders will explore climate-driven disease modeling, municipal emergency response plans, climate justice, and intersectoral governance. A key deliverable of the event will be the participatory drafting and adoption of the Uberlândia One Health & Climate Declaration, a strategic document aimed at guiding local policy and strengthening municipal resilience.
