Ecosystems and Health Research |

| This programme will focus on improving understanding of the relationship between disease vectors, ecosystem changes, climate, human behavior and health outcomes. It will enhance the capacity of public health services to predict and respond quickly to malaria, meningitis, cholera and other climate-sensitive diseases. Models of the relationship between observed environmental parameters and health outcomes will enable the effects of immunity, for example, on climate-sensitive diseases to be studied.
Wherever possible this programme will take advantage of existing impact studies and will focus on linking them with specific health applications
