The Yale Center on Climate Change and Health (YCCCH) utilizes Yale’s multidisciplinary expertise and global reach to train future leaders, provide a comprehensive educational program, and catalyze innovative research, all to address one of the greatest public health challenges of the 21st century.
Health Care Sustainability
The Y-PHES program works to shrink the environmental footprint of the health care system — through research, policy, and education — that resource conservation is part of the duty to do no harm.
Mental Health
Research, education, and advocacy at the intersection of climate and psychological well-being — from the mental health toll of extreme weather to the resilience that sustains climate action.
Urban Health
In partnership with the Resilient Cities Network, Urban Pulse is dedicated to putting health and equity at the heart of climate action in cities — where half the world already lives, rising to 70% by 2050.
