Interfaith Workshop on Health &Environment Justice
A quarter of the world’s disease burden can be avoided by creating better surroundings, according to research. In order to incorporate environmental justice components in health and interfaith initiatives, the ELCT health and diakonia directorate held a workshop for interfaith leaders from Kilimanjaro, Manyara, Dodoma, and Singida on February 21, 2023. Programs for planting trees and educating people are among the agreements made. Integration will take place for the ELCT Health and Diakonia Directorate in all projects and activities, including SRHR school programs, palliative care as a part of bereavement support for families, and others.
