Wales faces unprecedented ‘triple challenge’ to health and wellbeing.

A new report from the World Health Organisation Collaborating Centre at Pubic Health Wales is the first of its kind to study the cumulative impacts of Brexit, coronavirus and climate change together and their combined influences on health, wellbeing and inequalities in Wales.

The paper examines a range of factors that will be impacted by the three challenges, including health, economic, social and security, mental wellbeing, environment and access to, and quality of services and highlights how this ‘triple challenge’ will have direct and indirect impacts on health behaviours of the population, for example, diet, nutrition, active travel and alcohol.
