In this episode, Prof. Elke Hertig from the ΰµÂ¹ú¼Ê_ΰµÂ¹ú¼Ê1946$ÓéÀÖappÓÎÏ· of Augsburg explains how the effects of global climate change on human health can be researched. She gives an insight into her research projects, which deal with infectious diseases transmitted by mosquitoes as well as the effects of weather extremes, air pollutants or UV radiation on the health status of people. Why it is worth looking at the effects locally and how we need to set up our healthcare system in order to be able to deal with the effects of climate change in the long term are topics in this podcast episode.

The AdaptNet project has created a tool with the aim of promoting climate change adaptation in the German healthcare system and supporting private practices in adapting to climate change: The free online basic training course on climate change and health, which is accessible to everyone.
