Learn why some people face greater health risks from climate change and how to protect them.

What this module covers

Understanding unequal impacts: You will understand for example, why two children in the same flooded community face different health outcomes. One gets severely ill, the other does not.

Most vulnerable groups include:
Children
Pregnant women
The elderly

Factors that increase risk: Age, nutrition, gender, and poverty determine who gets harmed most.

Learning from 68 countries: Discover strategies from health workers worldwide for reaching at-risk groups first and building community resilience.

Key takeaway
Understanding vulnerability patterns helps you target protection where it is needed most. Reflect on your community: Who is most vulnerable and why?

This knowledge empowers you to better protect those who need it most.
