Measuring the carbon footprint of health facilities:  Introduction to the Carbon Management Tool

This training course was designed for health sector professionals for calculating and tracking carbon footprint of healthcare operations for all Scopes 1-3, waste generated and water use. The tutorials provide a detailed walkthrough of the Aga Khan Development Network’s (AKDN) Carbon Management Tool, enabling learners to start their carbon footprinting journey.

The tool is in use for over two years from each of its 400 facilities in 8 countries that offer services ranging from health promotion and disease prevention, community and primary care to specialist, tertiary care. The approach and tool has been reviewed and endorsed by the World Health Organisation.
