Advancing Climate & Health Resiliency Through Science & Action
Our mission is to build a network of transdisciplinary scientists and a strong research infrastructure to advance community-driven, solution-focused environmental adaptation and health research. Our work aims to inform policies that enhance local resilience, mitigate risks, and improve public health outcomes.
