St. Paul’s Hospital Iloilo (SPHI), a member of the Global Green and Healthy Hospitals (GGHH) Network here in the Philippines, was named a 2020 Climate Champion by Health Care Without Harm.
As a participant in the Health Care Climate Challenge, SPHI is committed to reducing health care’s own carbon footprint, preparing for the impacts of extreme weather and the shifting burden of disease and educating staff and the public while promoting policies to protect public health from climate change.
This year, SPHI received recognition for the efforts and success of our institution and staff by bagging the SILVER Climate Leadership Award.
In a statement, SPHI said it is honored to receive this award and to be a part of a global community of health care institutions on every continent leading the transformation to climate-smart health care.
“We celebrate this moment with everyone and with our colleagues around the world. And we look forward to the work that lays ahead as we strive to protect the future health of our community, environment and planet.”
