From March to August 2024, NIA will host a webinar series (1 hour monthly sessions) on Translational Science in Climate and Health. In these monthly meetings, expert members from the U.S. and abroad will explore key issues in the translation of scientific insights around climate and health into actionable interventions that reduce harms from climate change — the goal of the NIH Climate Change and Health Initiative Strategic Framework. Speakers will cover a range of topics from case studies in climate and health interventions, frameworks in climate-related implementation science, the principles of team science, systems-based approaches, and the application of environmental and climate justice. Each webinar will end with an opportunity for questions and discussion, particularly as they focus on the well-being and health of older aged adults.
