Join Dean Thomas LaVeist and the Celia Scott Weatherhead School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine at Tulane University on Thursday, September 18 for the 2025 Symposium on Climate and Health in the Gulf South. This year, participants will have a chance to join a tour led by community partners, to view some examples of climate-resilient infrastructure working to make sure New Orleans is more prepared to live with our changing climate. More details on this tour will be made available soon!

Following the tour, join us at the Celia Scott Weatherhead School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine for a networking reception and evening programming.

The evening programming will include a keynote address, and then a dynamic panel discussion around place-based public health issues, providing critical analysis in the context of local factors for education, policy, and action as it relates to work at the intersection of climate and health.
