The coming weeks offer several opportunities for both NCSH members and their organisations to strengthen their knowledge, exchange experiences and connect with others working to advance sustainable healthcare.
From our online Crash Course in August to the 8th Nordic Conference on Sustainable Healthcare and surrounding side events in Malmö, here is what is coming up.
NEXT WEEK: Crash Course in Sustainable Healthcare - 27 August
27 August 2026 | Online | 13:00–17:00 CET | Free for NCSH members
Non-members are also welcome to participate for a participation fee.
Our Crash Course in Sustainable Healthcare provides an introduction to sustainable healthcare and the developments currently shaping the sector.
During the afternoon, participants will gain an overview of key sustainability challenges in healthcare, current trends and practical examples of how organisations are working to reduce environmental impact while maintaining high-quality healthcare.
The course is free for NCSH members, and all colleagues within a member organisation are welcome to participate. We encourage members to share the opportunity internally with colleagues who would benefit from an introduction to sustainable healthcare.
