Calling all health professionals, students, and people interested in healthcare sustainability!

We look forward to seeing you at the Michigan Clinicians for Climate Action's 2nd Annual Climate & Health Conference on November 15, 2025, in Grand Rapids, MI! This will be our second in-person summit, and it promises to be an inspiring and impactful day as we come together and work for climate resilient outcomes in healthcare. Our focus this year will be clinician advocacy: for sustainable healthcare systems, just communities, and climate action.

We are excited to feature our keynote speaker, Dr. Aparna Bole, a pediatrician who is interested in the intersection between environmental stewardship, environmental justice, and pediatric public health. Her activities as a clinician, educator, advocate, and healthcare leader are focused on the environmental drivers of children’s health, including the health effects of climate change and the child health benefits of climate solutions. She is also involved in climate-smart healthcare, including environmentally responsible and climate-resilient healthcare operations, and climate-informed clinical care.. She will be joined along with other leading experts who will share their insights on critical topics such as climate-smart healthcare, sustainability and environmental justice. Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in breakout workshops and view or bring poster exhibitions to highlight research or a project related to healthcare, climate, or environmental justice.

All registered attendees will receive access to our MiCCA membership and newsletter, as well as lunch on the day of the event. Our goal is to equip attendees with the knowledge and tools needed to tackle climate's health challenges and foster a healthier, more equitable future. We hope you will join us in person for this one-day event.​
