Save the Children International (SCI) said media campaigns were crucial to climate change response.
The Advocacy and Campaign Coordinator of SCI, Farouk Abdulkadir asserted this during a one-day media chat on climate change, organised by Media Working Group, of SCI in collaboration with the Nigeria Medical Association, Kaduna State Chapter supported by Save the Children International.
According to Abdulkadir, there is a need for a working synergy among stakeholders in finding sustainable solutions to addressing the impact of climate change on the wellbeing of the people.
He opined that government agencies and the public need to understand the multisectoral nature of health and how failure in one sector affects the other, including the environment.
“When stakeholders from different sectors work as a team, we can build roads to hospitals, equip health facilities and break barriers to accessing quality health services.”
