In Accra’s slum communities like Old Fadama, climate change isn’t abstract it’s daily reality. Floods, extreme heat, poor sanitation, and limited healthcare collide to create a silent health crisis.
In this insightful episode of Conversations on Climate Change and Health,Dr. Bob Manteaw shares powerful stories of residents living with these vulnerabilities — and their resilience.
Together, we explore what urban health justice means, why ignoring slums weakens entire cities, and how building climate-resilient futures must begin with those most at risk.
Tune in and join the long-overdue conversations on climate change and health.
