For the past couple of years, we’ve compiled and shared an end-of-year webinar summary through our newsletter. We heard from many of you that this was useful, so here’s the roundup for 2025. The list includes 29 webinars and a sampling of our many complementary resources (blog posts, fact sheets, and Science Snippet videos).
You'll see materials created through CHE Alaska and the EDC Strategies Partnership, and with UCSF’s Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment (PRHE). We also collaborated with Habitable, Science and Environmental Health Network, Silent Spring Institute, US Right to Know, and others.
We've loosely organized these resources by theme, though many categories overlap. We hope this provides a useful refresher if you'd like to review anything you missed over the course of the year. To browse more resources, please explore our website's "Key Topics" menu above.
