Pathfinder 2 aims to catalyse and support successful action on climate mitigation with a focus on measured co-benefits for health. The first phase of the Pathfinder Initiative synthesised evidence on actions with the largest potential co-benefits, including energy, transport and agriculture/ food sectors. The second phase of the project will focus on three key areas where progress is needed: evidence for action, monitoring and evaluating progress; and capacity strengthening. First, machine learning techniques will be used to bring together relevant evidence and make it accessible to actors using a living evidence map. Second, a Coalition of research, enabling and implementing partners will be set up to galvanise the implementation of informed actions and their evaluation. Third, a community of practice will be brought together for sharing of knowledge and tools. The key goals of the project are to identify and deliver context-specific evidence on health co-benefits, and to strengthen global capacity to implement and evaluate climate mitigation actions that will promote human health. Building on the successful Lancet Commission brought together for the first phase of Pathfinder, this work will be guided by a panel of experts from across disciplines and global regions, with major multilateral organisations represented.
