About the course

Climate change has been described as a public health emergency. The effects of climate change are already altering our physical environments. Human health is intrinsically linked to the health of our environment, from air and water quality to food and energy security. In addition to direct impacts on health, climate change can disrupt healthcare systems, local economies, and governance structures. The Changing Climates and Health stream provides a critical foundation in ecosystem, climate, and climate change science that can be applied to better understand mechanisms for assessing and planning for health in changing environments or to explore public health implications of natural disasters or for Indigenous populations.

　　This program examines the issue of health and wellness, including mental health, from a variety of perspectives including how biological, cultural, social, and environmental contexts influence the health and well-being of the individual.

　　You will learn about issues of health ranging from biological, psychological, cultural and environmental and how factors such as genetics, personality, attitudes and abilities influence healthy social and emotional development throughout the life span. You will study the role of cultural and community processes in health and healing and examine how groups interact with their environment in healthy and unhealthy ways.
