SUMMARY– OVERALL The central theme of the Drexel Climate Change and Urban Health Research Center (CCUH) is the creation and dissemination/translation of evidence that will support urban policies to address the health and equity impacts of climate change in cities. Urban areas are key contributors to climate change and are home to large inequities, but also present many opportunities for action. Urbanization is occurring more rapidly in lower-and middle-income countries, and climate change is spurring migration across countries. Research on the health impacts of climate change must span urban communities across countries, yet little work has focused on intra- urban inequities or conducted comparative analyses of these inequities across heterogeneous cities. Based on our established, productive collaboration across 13 institutions in the US and Latin America, we aim to build institutional capacity at Drexel and at three partner sites included in this formative Center (University of California Berkeley, University of São Paulo in Brazil, and INCAP in Guatemala) to support action-oriented research on the impacts of climate change on population health and health inequities in diverse cities across the Americas. Specifically, we will leverage existing strengths at Drexel in urban health and health equity, our research network on urban health in Latin America (the Salud Urbana en America Latina or SALURBAL study) and our work with US partners including US Big Cities Health Coalition. This robust, existing infrastructure will enable us to expand our urban health and health equity work to encompass the generation of solutions- oriented evidence on the impacts of climate change on health in cities and translate that evidence into actions in partnership with communities and policymakers. Our aims are: (1) to create an organizational structure that promotes collaborative and inclusive transdisciplinary and policy-relevant research on climate change and health across cities of the Americas (Administrative Core); (2) to support capacity-strengthening for research on climate change health impacts in urban settings through structured training activities, funding pilot grants and research methods translation and support (Research Capacity Building Core); (2) to demonstrate the informativeness and policy-relevance of multi-country research on climate change and health equity through a research project on intra-urban inequities engaging researchers from the US and Latin America (Research Project); and (4) to increase capacity for policy translation and policy impact through the engagement of policy makers and impacted urban communities in order to inform future research questions, as well as dissemination and translation efforts to maximize impact (Community Engagement Core.) Through these aims we will support the creation of the infrastructure, research and engagement capacity, and partnerships needed to expand policy relevant research on the impacts of climate change on health and health equity in urban areas. Our ultimate goal is to become a center of excellence on climate change and urban health with a strong equity focus, global reach and meaningful engagement of policy makers and communities to maximize policy impact.

摘要 - 总体 Drexel气候变化和城市健康研究中心（CCUH）的中心主题是创建 以及将支持城市政策以解决健康与公平的证据的传播/翻译 城市气候变化的影响。城市地区是气候变化的主要因素，并且是大型的家园 不平等，但也带来了许多行动机会。城市化的发生较低，并且 中等收入国家和气候变化正在促进整个国家的迁移。健康研究 气候变化的影响必须跨越各个国家的城市社区，但很少有工作重点是 城市不平等或对这些不平等城市的这些不平等进行了比较分析。基于 我们在美国和拉丁美洲的13个机构之间建立的产品合作，我们旨在建立 Drexel的机构能力以及该组合中心的三个合作伙伴地点（大学 加利福尼亚伯克利，巴西圣保罗大学，在危地马拉的Incap）以支持动作导向 研究气候变化对整个不同城市种群健康和健康摄入量的影响 美洲。具体而言，我们将利用Drexel在Urban Health and Health公平方面的现有优势，我们 拉丁美洲城市健康研究网络（Salud Urbana en America Latina或Salurbal研究） 以及我们与我们的合作伙伴的合作，包括美国大城市健康联盟。这种强大的现有基础架构将 使我们能够扩大我们的城市健康和健康公平工作，以涵盖解决方案的产生 - 关于气候变化对城市健康影响的影响的证据，并将证据转化为行动 与社区和政策制定者合作。我们的目标是：（1）建立一个组织结构 促进有关气候变化和与政策有关的合作和包容性的跨学科和政策研究 整个美洲城市的健康（行政核心）； （2）支持研究能力强度 关于气候变化通过结构化培训活动在城市环境中的影响，资助飞行员赠款 以及研究方法的翻译和支持（研究能力构建核心）； （2）演示 多国关于气候变化和健康公平研究的信息性和政策性通过 城市内不平等研究项目与美国和拉丁美洲的研究人员有关（研究 项目）; （4）通过参与政策来增加政策翻译和政策影响的能力 制造商并影响城市社区，以告知未来的研究问题以及传播 和翻译努力，以最大程度地发挥影响力（社区参与核心。）通过这些目标，我们将支持 建立基础架构，研究和参与能力以及扩展所需的合作伙伴关系 政策相关的研究对气候变化对城市健康公平的影响的影响。我们的 最终目标是成为具有强大公平的气候变化和城市健康卓越的中心 重点，全球影响力以及政策制定者和社区的有意义的参与，以最大程度地发挥政策影响。
