Dear Member,
The Trinidad and Tobago Medical Association (T&TMA) is pleased to announce the adoption of its Policy on Climate Change and Health.
This particular policy is a milestone in our Association’s work, marking one of the first structured efforts at the national medical association level in Trinidad and Tobago to highlight the intersection of climate change and health. It underscores three core priorities:
• building climate resilience in health facilities;
• equipping physicians with knowledge to address climate-sensitive health risks;
• promoting sustainability in healthcare delivery.
This development reflects our commitment to advancing public health, ensuring healthcare preparedness, and positioning physicians as leaders in shaping a resilient future.
Please find the document below for your information. We ask all members to review it and to join us in advocating within your communities for climate and health action, ensuring that the medical profession continues to lead in this crucial area.
With kind regards,
The Trinidad and Tobago Medical Association (T&TMA)
T&T Medical Association
