This year the EcoHealth 2014 will be held in Montréal from August 11th to 15th, 2014 THEMES will be: EcoHealth conferences are characterized by being open to innovative ways of thinking within and beyond academia and by encouraging transdisciplinary, integrated approaches to health that consider humans, animals and other species. For researchers, educators, practitioners and decision-makers, EcoHealth conferences provide a range of opportunities to foster connections among diverse disciplines and approaches. For EcoHealth 2014, the central theme of Connections for health, ecosystems and society reinforces the importance of connections and learning among the various approaches and perspectives that compose the mosaic of the field, and encourages involvement of collaborators from outside of academia to participate actively in the conference. We hope the conference will help build new connections between groups and individuals working to find solutions to the complex array of problems emerging at the confluence of health, environment and society. Three main themes have been put forward for EcoHealth 2014 Conference: Drivers of change to health, ecosystems and society: Integrating understanding from global to local scales Innovations in theory, methods and practice Moving between research and action: Mobilizing knowledge to benefit health, ecosystems, and society For detailed informations please visit: http://ecohealth2014.uqam.ca/en/programme/keynotes.html...

People, our fellow creatures and our mutual planet need our urgent attention in the face of global environmental change. The ecohealth community recognizes that global climate change and its impacts are profound issues requiring definitive action. This statement is a call to action on climate change for the ecohealth community in conjunction with others similarly committed to the health and wellbeing of humans, animals and environments. The call is to build upon the strengths of ecohealth to make sustained efforts by integrating understanding, sharing insights and tools, and taking practical steps and coordinated actions. The statement is intended as a stepping-stone within a growing momentum that connects diverse current and future actions to respond to climate change, and orients collective efforts to a combined focus on connections for health, ecosystems and society.
