NIH Climate Change and Health Webinar Series: Climate Change and Health: Generating Research Evidence for Action

Description: This webinar will feature Sir Andy Haines, Professor of Environmental Change and Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine with a welcome by Fogarty International Center Director Roger Glass, M.D., Ph.D. Climate change threatens health through a range of pathways including the effects of heat and extreme events, increased air pollution, changes in infectious disease transmission, undernutrition, increasing poverty and population displacement, but there are still important gaps in our understanding of the impacts. The development and implementation of effective adaptation and mitigation strategies are essential to reduce the risks to health. The presentation will give an overview of the research challenges and opportunities for generating evidence for effective action.
