   been conducting research and practice on the health risks of climate
   variability and change for 25 years, focusing on understanding sources of
   vulnerability; estimating current and future health risks of climate
   change; designing adaptation policies and measures to reduce risks in
   multi-stressor environments; and estimating the health co-benefits of
   mitigation policies. She has supported multiple countries in Central
   America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific in assessing their
   vulnerabilities and implementing adaptation policies and programs.

   psychology, public health, and ecology, with a focus on examining the ways
   in which nature experience benefits mental and physical health, and
   potential causal mechanisms underlying these relationships. He is the
   director of the Environment and Well-Being Lab ­– a research group that
   gathers empirical data, develops theoretical frameworks, and uses novel
   approaches to understand the association of nature contact with cognitive
   function, mood, and other aspects of psychological well-being.
   - *Sherilee Harper, MSc, PhD

   is a Canada Research Chair in Climate Change and Health and Kule Scholar.
   Her research investigates associations between weather, environment, and
   health equity in the context of climate change, and she collaborates with
   partners across sectors to prioritize climate-related health actions,
   planning, interventions, and research.
   - *Susan Clayton, PhD
   <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/wooster.edu/bio/sclayton/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!l-m4KwVYxDANY2V76m_Xrh_7X51S9454UH4HC8SJJ0PGaTUJSdWGACcd1IoINzaTnsH6AUbKLNXv$>*

   psychologist, interested in understanding and promoting a healthy
   relationship between humans and nature. Clayton is currently focusing on
   the implications of climate change for psychological wellbeing. She has
   also worked with zoos, where a wide and diverse range of people come to
   interact with wild animals and may learn about nature and about
   conservation needs during their visit. Underlying all these research topics
   is her Clayton's interest in the social processes that promote
   environmental concern and environmental identity.


We hope to see you there!

Warmly,

Carolyn
