SUMMARY:RIGG Symposium - Climate Change and Future Child Health
DESCRIPTION:The UWA Research Income Growth Grant (RIGG) Symposium on Climate Change and Future Child Health will examine the effects of climate change\, environmental degradation and population dynamics on the health of future children. Given that children are estimated to bear 80-90% of the burden of ill-health caused by climate change\, this issue is now one of the greatest problems facing the future of our species on the planet. \nThis Symposium will examine: \n\nThe future climate and environment impacts most likely to affect children\nThe likely consequences for their health\nThe striking paucity of research which examines the scale of these effects over the next 10 to 50 years\nWhy there’s an urgent need for this research\nHow this research can be used to help ensure the health children in the future\n\n  \nThis event is free and open to all researchers\, scientists\, clinicians\, students\, research funders and health providers interested in climate change and future child health. Registrations are essential – please email Prof Peter Le Souëf by COB Wednesday 27 November 2019 to secure your place. \n  \nProgram:\n0900-1030: Climate change and an increasingly hostile environment \n0900: Brief welcome address – Carmen Lawrence \n0900-0915: Climate change\, geospatial mapping and human ecology – Corey Bradshaw \n0915-0930: Climate change and the environment – global and local – Jatin Kala \n0930-0945: Climate change and air quality – current and future – Alex Larcombe \n0945-1010: Geospatial analyses of future infectious diseases in children – Peter Gething \n1000-1030: Forum discussion – climate change and the environment \n1030-1100: Coffee break \n1100-1230: Future child health: why climate change is important \n1100-1115: Future child health in low-income countries – Quique Bassat \n1115-1130: Climate change and eco-anxieties in young people – Petra Tscharkert \n1130-1145: The Lancet Commission and global child health – Peter Sly \n1145-1200: Future child health in Australia and Western Australia – Peter Le Souëf \n1200-1230: Forum discussion – climate change and future child health \n1230-1300: Light lunch \n  \nSpeakers (expertise in brackets):\nProf Corey Bradshaw – ARC Centre of Excellence for Australian Biodiversity and Heritage; Global Ecology\, College of Science and Engineering\, Flinders University (global ecology\, statistical modelling) \nDr Jatin Kala – ARCH Discovery Early Career Research Award fellow\, IPCC Coordinating Lead Author (CLA)\, Murdoch University (climate change and the environment) \nDr Alex Larcombe – Telethon Kids Institute (health effects of air pollution) \nProf Quique Bassat – University of Barcelona\, Spain; Health Research Centre\, Manhiça\, Mozambique (child health in developing countries) \nProf Peter Gething – Telethon Kids Institute (geospatial mapping of infectious diseases) \nProf Petra Tschakert – Faculty of Science\, UWA School of Agriculutre and Environment\, CLA of IPPC Chapter 5\, Special Report on 1.5C Global Warming (human-environment interactions) \nProf Peter Sly – Director\, Children’s Health and Environment Program; Director\, WHO Collaborating Centre for Children’s Health & Environment\, University of Queensland (climate change & child health\, respiratory health in children) \nProf Peter Le Souëf – School of Medicine\, UWA (respiratory and global child health)
