Bettina Koelle from the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre tells about how researchers, scientists, NGOs and policy-makers came together in the CHANCE network (Climate & Health Africa Network for Collaboration and Engagement).

CEO and founder of La Isla Network, Jason Glaser, talks about why we should be concerned about workers in a warming climate, what happens to these workers and their health and what we can do about it.

In this video Dr. Hedi Kriit from Umeå and Heidelberg Universities talks about how health effects in relation to climate change can be valued economically and be included in a cost-benefit analysis with climate adaptation and mitigation policies.

Dr. Francesca de’Donato, Department of Epidemiology at the Lazio Regional Health Service in Rome, Italy, takes us through core elements of heat health adaptation plans that aims to reduce the risks for peoples’ health during heatwaves.

This policy brief discusses cost of extreme heat for outdoor workers/employers in low-and middle-income countries and provides cost-effective protection measures. It calls for workplace interventions and regulation to improve productivity and health.

Analyzing 15 climate change & health projects we identify areas for potential synergies between the projects. We find that the ENBEL project can add particular value in terms of synthesis of research findings, dissemination & knowledge mobilisation.

Wildfires and air pollution related to wildfire smoke have an impact on our health. This policy brief summarises new evidence on how climate change will increase the health risks from wildfires across the world.

Co-design in climate and health research ensures resulting policies and interventions are feasible and acceptable. This policy brief highlights lessons learned from the Belmont Forum funded projects on Climate, Environment and Health.

This policy brief summarises evidence on vulnerable groups and prevention measures in heat health action plans.

This policy brief presents an analysis of climate adaptation financing for health (2009-2019). It reveals insufficient funds allocated and calls for increased financing and local adaptation focus in the sector.

This policy brief reviews EU Member State COVID-19 Recovery Plan commitments in the context of climate adaptation and health system resilience and identifies opportunities for further climate and health policy implementation.

For health risks to be better integrated into adaptation policy, it is critical to interconnect national and urban levels, reduce sectoral thinking and welcome external expertize and facilitate large-scale data collection and sharing of indicators.

The Ugandan Ministry of Health and the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre, supported by ENBEL and the CHANCE network, organised a workshop in Uganda to strengthen health and climate networks, linking academia, civil society and policy makers.

An international group of researchers and public health experts presented a pre-conference workshop on Public Health Measures to address the impact of climate change on population health on 10.11.2021 at the 14th European Public Health Conference.

This document specify the projects to be represented in ENBEL, the geographical scope, the research domains to be addressed, the key users/target audience, the scope of the accompanying knowledge platform & the role of research data in the project.

More capacity is needed to monitor health effects and inequities, evaluate adaptation and mitigation interventions, address current under-representations of low- or middle-income countries, and translate research into effective policymaking.

Climate change impacts negatively on people's wellbeing, health and work performance, with impacts unevenly distributed across groups. This report analyse scientific literature on vulnerability from the relevant projects with the ENBEL network.
