Building Resilience against Climate Effects—A Novel Framework to Facilitate Climate Readiness in Public Health Agencies

Climate change is anticipated to have several adverse health impacts. Managing these risks to public health requires an iterative approach. As with many risk management strategies related to climate change, using modeling to project impacts, engaging a wide range of stakeholders, and regularly updating models and risk management plans with new information-hallmarks of adaptive management-are co...
