Climate and Health Institute (CHI) at the George Washington University (GW)

The Climate and Health Institute (CHI) is a university-wide collaboration at the George Washington University that prioritizes cross-disciplinary research, training, and action to advance solutions and opportunities that mitigate the harm of climate change on human health. The CHI remains committed to its vision of an evidence-based global response by governments and stakeholders to mitigate the climate crisis and equitably improve public health, and will continue to work to achieve the equitable protection of population health at the local, national and global level through:
1) Conducting policy-relevant and community-oriented research that reveals relationships between climate change and human health.
2) Educating and empowering the newest generation of leaders in equitably minimizing climate change and its health consequences.
3) Communicating and translating cross-disciplinary knowledge to integrate health and equity into actions to address climate change.
