Join the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM) weekly on Tuesday and Wednesday, March 5 - April 2, 2024 for a series of webinars featuring guest speakers discussing a variety of topics surrounding the social determinants of environmental health.

This webinar series explores research-based aspects of environmental health, which may include topics such as: health effects of climate change, indoor/outdoor air quality, natural- and human-caused disasters, toxins in consumer products, and occupational health. The series includes information on environmental health disparities and populations disproportionately burdened by environmental hazards. Each webinar session features expert guest speaker(s), a Q&A period, and may include additional activities and discussions.
