  by the Yale Center on Climate Change and Health (YCCCH) in collaboration
  with Yale Planetary Solutions\, will be a day-long meeting showcasing fa
 culty innovation and strengthening transdisciplinary collaboration in cli

  among academics\, government\, and practitioners—YCCCH seeks to convene 
 faculty across Yale to celebrate achievements\, bring new perspectives in
 to the conversation\, and hone the university’s strategy to remain a lead
 ing player in the climate change and health space. The Forum will include
  sessions specifically geared towards developing Yale’s Letter of Intent 
 for the Burroughs Wellcome Fund Climate and Health Excellence Centers (CH
 EX) award . The Forum is made possible through generous conference suppor
 t from The Institution for Social and Policy Studies at Yale University.
