In 2022, over 100 million people –1 in every 78 people in the world – were forced to flee their homes to a location within or beyond their country's borders, due to climatic or other man-made catastrophes. Most displaced people are housed in communities already experiencing climatic stress, exacerbating the risk of water insecurity, food insecurity, disease, struggles over resources, marginalization, and conflict between host and displaced populations. Amid the social upheaval caused by displacement, we call for a gendered approach to fostering resilience, with a particular emphasis on women. In this perspective piece, we advocate for policy and program changes that respond to the unique challenges and circumstances of displaced women and locally derived solutions that promote resilience. We start by providing an overview of health inequities during displacement, exacerbated by climate change, and then examine how gender interacts with displacement to shape women's health and wellbeing. We close with an illustrative example of Rohingya women displaced in Bangladesh who have adapted technology to combat climate change and mitigate social and health inequities to build resilience, even under severe restrictions. Gender-informed research on health, climate change, and resilience in contexts of humanitarian disasters and mass population displacement can elucidate the effectiveness of culturally- and contextually- specific interventions over the short- and long-term.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":75054,"journal":{"name":"The journal of climate change and health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667278224000063/pdfft?md5=b3952417c7a7e9b87d0e778f036aec71&pid=1-s2.0-S2667278224000063-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141289644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intricate interplay of various factors makes it challenging to accurately predict and understand the implications of climate change on human well-being. Conventional methodologies have limitations in comprehensively addressing the complexity and nonlinearity inherent in the relationships between climate change and health outcomes.</p></div><div><h3>Objectives</h3><p>The primary objective of this paper is to develop a robust theoretical framework that can effectively analyze and interpret the intricate web of variables influencing the human health impacts of climate change. By doing so, we aim to overcome the limitations of conventional approaches and provide a more nuanced understanding of the complex relationships involved. Furthermore, we seek to explore practical applications of this theoretical framework to enhance our ability to predict, mitigate, and adapt to the diverse health challenges posed by a changing climate.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>Addressing the challenges outlined in the objectives, this study introduces the Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) framework, acknowledging its significance in capturing the nuanced dynamics of health effects linked to climate change. The research utilizes a blend of field observations, expert interviews, key informant interviews, and an extensive literature review to shape the development of the CAS framework.</p></div><div><h3>Results and discussion</h3><p>The proposed CAS framework categorizes findings into six key sub-systems: ecological services, extreme weather, infectious diseases, food security, disaster risk management, and clinical public health. The study employs agent-based modeling, using causal loop diagrams (CLDs) tailored for each CAS sub-system. A set of identified variables is incorporated into predictive modeling to enhance the understanding of health outcomes within the CAS framework. Through a combination of theoretical development and practical application, this paper aspires to contribute valuable insights to the interdisciplinary field of climate change and health.
