The role of open standards in catalysing knowledge transfer to deliver climate adaptive care
As climate change threatens to destroy health gains, digital health provides infrastructure that is well-placed to offer patient-centred health insights. These insights are important to advance research to explore the intersection of climate and health. We present a proposal to leverage open data standards to more seamlessly collect, exchange, and use a combination of environmental and health data to assess climate-health risks to improve patient and population outcomes.
