General Description of the Research Project | This interdisciplinary research project aims to assess the effectiveness of climate change adaptation interventions for strengthening community resilience to smoke haze in Southeast Asia, and increasing their adoption and implementation in the region to protect children’s health. The project takes an integrated and multi-sectoral approach to manage the inter-related factors of adaptation interventions, such as early warning systems, clean air rooms, and targeted public health information, in culturally appropriate ways that promote their acceptance and implementation in local communities. |
