Introduction

Established in 1948, the World Health Organization (WHO) is a United Nations agency dedicated to connecting nations, partners, and individuals to promote health, ensure global safety, and support vulnerable populations, enabling everyone, everywhere to achieve the highest possible standard of health.

To facilitate access to actionable knowledge to protect populations from the health risks of climate change and other environmental hazards, WHO hired CT to design a website — and brand identity — for its ClimaHealth portal.

Goals:

Develop a simple, identifiable brand identity for ClimaHealth

Design and develop an accessible, responsive, and scalable ClimaHealth website

Prioritize a filterable and searchable resource library

Responding to the needs of the public health community.

In addition to quick facts and links to tools and publications, ClimaHealth’s homepage allows users to explore health risks around the globe through a series of strategically placed filters. An interactive map helps users access content from the website’s libraries and directories in an alternative format, while social media links in the footer provide additional opportunities to learn and engage.

Clearly Connected

Together with a simple yet interesting brand identity, the ClimaHealth portal works to meet the needs of users on all sides of the climate–environment–health spectrum.
