This award provides support to U.S. researchers participating in a project competitively selected by a 55-country initiative on global change research through the Belmont Forum. The Belmont Forum is a consortium of research funding organizations focused on support for transdisciplinary approaches to global environmental change challenges and opportunities. It aims to accelerate delivery of the international research most urgently needed to remove critical barriers to sustainability by aligning and mobilizing international resources. Each partner country provides funding for their researchers within a consortium to alleviate the need for funds to cross international borders. This approach facilitates effective leveraging of national resources to support excellent research on topics of global relevance best tackled through a multinational approach, recognizing that global challenges need global solutions.Working together in this Collaborative Research Action, the partner agencies have provided support to foster global transdisciplinary research teams of natural (including climate), health and social scientists and stakeholders from across the globe to improve understanding of climate, environment and health pathways to protect and promote health. The projects will provide crucial new understanding into the health implications arising from the impacts of climate change and variability on; 1) the quality/quantity of food, 2) chronic exposure to increases/changes in heat and humidity and 3) changes in the distribution and incidence of a range of infectious diseases and emergence of novel pathogens. This award provides support for the U.S. researchers to cooperate in consortia that consist of partners from at least three of the participating countries to increase our knowledge of the complex linkages and pathways between the climate, environment and health to help solve complex challenges that face societies. This project seeks to develop a multidisciplinary approach to help improve how formal and informal health systems address changes to heat stress, infectious disease, and food systems. The project will work with citizen science and non-profit groups based in the Alaska and Trinidad and Tobago (Caribbean) to provide a contrast of locations with similar challenges. While the project will develop an assessment technique to help community organizations address climate change health risks, it will also develop techniques to overcome collective action problems, which often prove as a barrier for community action toward these challenges. The project will identify a set of indicators and techniques for assessing the potential to overcome collective action problems that will be coupled with assessment tools that can be used to advance climate change related research. The project will also provide additional knowledge on how to better integrate often siloed knowledge on environmental change, health, and risk management— especially as applied to heat stress, infectious disease, and food systems.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为参加一个由55个国家通过Belmont论坛进行全球变更研究的计划竞争性选择的项目提供了支持。 Belmont论坛是一个研究资助组织的财团，专注于支持全球环境变化挑战和机遇的跨学科方法。它的目的是加快迫切需要的国际研究的交付，以通过结盟和动员国际资源来消除可持续性的关键障碍。每个合作伙伴国家为财团内的研究人员提供资金，以减轻资金越过国际边界的需求。这种方法设施有效利用国家资源来支持有关全球相关性主题的出色研究，最好通过跨国方法来解决全球挑战，并认识到全球解决方案需要全球解决方案。在这项合作研究行动中，合作伙伴机构为促进全球跨学科研究团队提供了支持，以促进自然和社会科学家和健康范围的自然企业和健康范围，从而促进跨越的环境和健康范围。这些项目将为气候变化和可变性的影响产生的健康影响提供至关重要的新理解； 1）食物的质量/数量，2）长期暴露于热量和湿度的增加/变化； 3）一系列感染疾病的分布和发生率的变化以及新型病原体的出现。该奖项为美国的研究人员提供了支持在财团中合作的支持，这些奖项由至少三个参与国家的合作伙伴组成，以提高我们对气候，环境和健康之间复杂联系和途径的了解，以帮助解决面对社会面临的复杂挑战。该项目旨在开发一种多学科的方法，以帮助改善正式和非正式卫生系统如何解决热应激，传染病和食品系统的变化。该项目将与位于阿拉斯加，特立尼达和多巴哥（加勒比海）的公民科学和非营利组织合作，提供与类似挑战的地点的对比。尽管该项目将开发一种评估技术来帮助社区组织解决气候变化的健康风险，但它将开发以克服集体行动问题的技术，这通常被证明是针对这些挑战的社区行动的障碍。该项目将确定一组指标和技术，以评估克服集体行动问题的潜力，这些问题将与可用于提高气候变化相关研究的评估工具结合使用。该项目还将提供有关如何更好地整合有关环境变化，健康和风险管理的经常孤立知识的更多知识，尤其是应用于热压力，传染病和食品体系。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准来通过评估来获得的支持。
