Mental health and the climate crisis
On October 7th 2024, took place in Brussel the High-Level Policy Dialogue Presidency event, focused on "Mental Health and the Triple Planetary Crisis – Climate change, environmental pollution, and biodiversity loss”.
This event was organized by the Hungarian European Union Presidency in collaboration with the WHO Regional Office for Europe.
At this event we presented our model of intervention with EMDR recent events protocol in case of natural disasters. Isabel Fernandez, as International representative of EMDR Europe, presented our experience in the field on how the triple planetary crisis affects mental health, with a focus on climate change, and how this evidence-based approach can mitigate this impact.
