Research project

Climate, gender and mental health in Ghana

Ghana 07°57′N 01°01′W

Climate, gender and mental health

This project asks how climate variability and change register in mental health and well-being, and why those effects fall differently on women and men. It works across Ghana, combining evidence synthesis on human adaptation with fieldwork on how communities absorb environmental stress.
