Wellcome is a financially and politically independent global charitable foundation established in 1936. It supports science to solve the urgent health issues facing everyone, bringing together expertise across science innovation, and society to develop solutions to address three of the biggest health challenges facing humanity – climate change, infectious disease and mental health. The Climate and Health program seeks to generate the health evidence for policy action that protects health from climate change.

Founded by Thomas Wakley in 1823, The Lancet began as an independent, international weekly general medical journal with the vision that it should drive social and political change through advancing medical research and science for the greater good. Since its founding, the journal has evolved to include over 20 titles that are part of The Lancet Group while retaining the core belief that medicine must serve society, that knowledge must transform society, and that the best science must lead to better lives.
