Mind the gap: Assessing climate change vulnerability across populations

• Author(s) / Creator(s)

  • Yamamoto, Shelby

• SSHRC Knowledge Synthesis grant awarded 2020. The project explores prior research to learn about health-related climate change vulnerability, as assessed in terms of exposure (contact), sensitivity (characteristics that may increase risk), and adaptive capacity (ability to adjust) across specific populations (older adults, pregnant women, infants, children, outdoor workers, immigrants) in Canada and South Asia. The outcomes will include themes, knowledge gaps, follow-up research questions, and generate evidence for best practices.
