Collaborate with Us

This section is for professional stakeholders, including local/regional authorities, healthcare institutions, industry partners, and the research community, who wish to formally contribute to the project’s outputs.

What you will read here:

We are committed to co-creating practical, user-driven solutions to manage climate-related health risks. Your expertise is crucial for testing and validating the healthRiskADAPT framework. This is your opportunity to directly influence the project’s outcomes and ensure our tools are perfectly tailored to real-world needs.

Ways to Collaborate:

  • Join Our Living Labs and Pilot Activities: Engage in our dedicated Living Labs across European regions to co-design, test, and validate the health risk assessment services and innovative adaptation options. You will be instrumental in refining the project’s solutions against real-world scenarios.
  • Refine the Interactive Toolkit: Provide direct feedback on the interactive toolkit designed for local/regional authorities, helping us prioritize, plan, and evaluate adaptation measures against threats like heatwaves, air pollution, wildfire emissions, and pollen.
  • Networking and Scientific Exchange: If you are a researcher or represent a related EU-funded project, we invite you to connect with us for strategic clustering, knowledge exchange, and joint initiatives to maximize the collective impact of climate-health research in Europe.

Contact us at [healthRiskADAPT@nilu.no] to discuss partnership opportunities or to join our next Living Lab workshop.

Join as a Volunteer

This section is designed for citizens, community members, and students who want to contribute their time and local knowledge to the project.

What you will read here:

The fight against climate-related health risks needs to be kept alive in our communities. As a citizen, your perspective and feedback are essential to validating our tools and making our solutions truly effective at the local level. Join us as a volunteer to help build climate resilience for a healthier future.

Volunteer Opportunities:

  • Become a Climate-Health Citizen Scientist: Participate in local community validation activities and Citizen Science Initiatives to test and provide feedback on project outcomes, such as early warning systems or public communication materials. Help us ensure our services are accessible and understandable to everyone.
  • Support Awareness Campaigns: Help us disseminate vital information within your community. Volunteer to share project updates, attend local engagement sessions, and participate in our awareness-raising campaigns to educate your peers on local climate-health risks and adaptation strategies.
  • Local Feedback and Data Collection: Share your local, on-the-ground knowledge about climate impacts and health vulnerabilities to enrich the project’s risk indices and toolkits, providing a critical human layer to our scientific data.

Express your interest by filling out our Volunteer Sign-up Form to be notified of local opportunities.
