Loved (far too briefly!) wearing hard hats and really enjoyed spending time with @MLW_Programme seeing the excellent research being conducted and engaging with the exciting cohort of early career researchers. Thank you for hosting us so generously.

Malawi Liverpool Wellcome Programme @MLW_Programme Mar 22, 2024

Today Friday 22 March 2024, the @wellcometrust visitors toured the CREATOR Building which is still under construction at the Malawi Liverpool Wellcome Programme's premises in Blantyre as part of their ongoing visit.

Here are some pictures of the delegation during the tour.

Brilliant to be in Brussels today and tomorrow for such an exciting conference on climate and health - defining the research agenda for urgent action. #EUclimateandhealth

It’s been a privilege to be part of discussions as this conference has developed. If you are following, do watch out for two sessions Wellcome is co-leading on the global perspective of climate change and how health research can support better & fairer climate policy worldwide.

Very important report today from @CommonsEAC. Carrying on as we are with inadequate preparation, inadequate insulation and inadequate cooling is a recipe for increasing healthcare costs and fatalities. x.com/CommonsEAC/sta…

☀🌡2023 was the hottest year ever recorded globally.

The UK must prioritise passive cooling, nature-based solutions & improving the thermal comfort of homes.

Now that the FIRST EVER health day at @COP28_UAE is over, I just wanted to say I’ve been amazed by the way the climate and health communities have come together to make it such a success.
