Keppel Health Review
Established in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic by young public health professionals, we are a magazine that brings new and diverse perspectives to key issues in public and global health. We aim to bring you the views of leading academics whilst also supporting new researchers, policymakers, and activists reach wider audiences.
COP26 x KHR
If the time to make change is now, the place to do so is Glasgow. World leaders, climate activists, academics, and more decamp to the Scottish lowlands for the 26th Conference of the Parties (COP26). In this issue, the Keppel Health Review will explore and profile the inseparable interactions between health and the climate crisis. Our COP26 special issue provides coverage that challenges the status quo in climate conversations, and in doing so, considers the potential to build a stronger and more equitable global community.
