The World Federation of Paediatric Intensive and Critical Care Society is introducing its Awareness Week, a global initiative where colleagues caring for critically ill children share their experiences and innovations in a modest and collaborative spirit. This event highlights the impact of climate change, epidemics, and socio-economic challenges on child health and clinical care. Through a series of podcasts and webinars, clinical teams and health workers from various regions will discuss their working environments and problem-solving strategies while outlining their expectations from global partnerships. For example, teams from Sub-Saharan Africa will explore how Madagascar’s increasing tropical storms disrupt healthcare infrastructure, agriculture, and even alter the epidemiology of infectious diseases such as malaria and dengue, further exacerbating food insecurity and malnutrition risks. In eastern DRC’s South Kivu, health workers will focus on the compounded challenges posed by a fragile health system, MPOX epidemics, conflict, and the needs of displaced populations. Moreover, all teams will describe how climate change adaptation measures—such as energy-efficient facility designs and renewable energy use (e.g., solar energy) to ensure decentralized oxygen provision, power essential biomedical equipment, and maintain cold chains for vaccinations—can reduce carbon emissions and improve access to essential services for vulnerable populations. Colleagues will further outline how minimal standards for essential paediatric and neonatal emergency and critical care—across different levels of referral pathways—can be defined via WHO recommendations and the contributions of international professional societies, emphasizing that access to these vital services is a key element of universal health care coverage, as outlined in the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Our colleagues will also emphasize the responsibility of industrialized countries to support climate change adaptation measures in regions that have historically contributed minimally to global CO₂ emissions.
