The Alliance for Transformative Action on Climate and Health (ATACH; “the
Alliance”) works to realize the ambition set at COP26 to build climate resilient
and sustainable health systems, using the collective power of WHO Member States
(“Member States”) and other stakeholders to drive this agenda forward at pace
and scale; and promote the integration of climate change and health nexus into
respective national, regional, and global plans.


FIVE THEMATIC WORKING GROUPS WORK TO ADDRESS COMMON ISSUES:

 * Financing the Health Commitments on Climate Resilient and Sustainable Low
   Carbon Health Systems.
 * Climate Resilient Health Systems.
 * Low Carbon Sustainable Health Systems.
 * Supply Chains. 
 * Climate Action and Nutrition.


FUNCTIONS OF THE ATACH

 * Delivering international shift on priority issues: This function focuses on
   areas where a global shift can be delivered through the collective power of
   Member States and other stakeholders, as appropriate. It reflects collective
   interest of the Alliance as well as context specific themes which may be more
   applicable to smaller groupings of Member States.
 * Monitoring: Support WHO, in its efforts to collect data on country level
   progress against the commitments made.
 * Quality Assurance: Support WHO in developing quality assurance mechanisms
   designed to help ensure that assessments, plans, and implementation are of
   the quality required to deliver on commitments made thereby facilitating a
   common understanding of such commitments and measures of progress. The core
   aim is to help identify where support is required and to identify best
   practice.
 * Financing: This focuses on identifying financing needs, and support Member
   State access to finance, including climate finance, in a timely and
   sustainable way. This information also feeds into the monitoring function,
   tracking the performance of both domestic as well as donor/ development
   finance agencies in making funding available to meet Member State commitment
   needs.
 * Knowledge sharing and coordinating access to technical assistance: This
   function provides a forum for Alliance Participants to share expertise,
   knowledge and experience on the assessment, planning implementation,
   financing, and monitoring of commitments. This supports exchange among
   Participants and access to information to support evidence based and
   cost-effective delivery of commitments. This may include a function to advise
   WHO on the coordination of access to technical assistance, either directly
   (subject to funding availability) or through Participant capacity in line
   with WHO’s rules and policies.


PARTICIPATION

ATACH welcomes the participation and support from key stakeholders including
government entities, intergovernmental entities, and non-State actors to assist
WHO in supporting Member States through knowledge sharing, technical support,
capacity development and resource mobilization. More information is available in
the How to Apply section.


STATUS

ATACH is a WHO initiative, an informal voluntary network for Participants to
exchange views, share information, and enhance technical and political
co-operation. It is not a distinct legal entity, and it derives its legal status
from WHO. Thus, it shall be administered by WHO, which provides its Secretariat.
