CLIMADE ASIA
CLIMADE Asia is in its initial discussion process. A key objective will be to fill critical knowledge gaps and blind spots of disease transmission predicted to pose increased threats in the future. The initial activities in CLIMADE-Asia will be used to identify the partners as well to leverage and apply for further funding to expand the CLIMADE consortium.
Aim 1. Build a pan-Asia coalition to assess climate amplified pathogens susceptibility and transmission.

OUTCOMES
- Short-term – Build a pan-Asia coalition to assess climate amplified pathogens susceptibility and transmission.
- Medium-term – engaging in dialogue with ministries of health and other academic and industrial partners to expand the program in Asia.
