CHEERS Network / Participate

Research collaboration

For cohort teams, researchers, institutions and collaborators interested in climate and health research.

Ways to participate

Ways to collaborate

01 / Cohort teams

Connect your setting.

Explore how local surveillance and climate-health questions could connect with shared methods, technical exchange or a comparative study.

02 / Research partners

Develop a shared question.

Bring expertise in epidemiology, physiology, climate, data science or adaptation to a jointly designed project.

03 / Practice & communities

Shape useful evidence.

Help identify locally relevant questions, adaptation priorities and ways to communicate research for public health decisions.

How collaboration begins

Introduce your idea. Tell us about your setting, expertise and research interests.
Discuss the fit. Together, identify the relevant teams, methods and practical needs.
Develop the work. Participating institutions agree the research design, resources, ethics, contributions and data arrangements.

Can I access participant data through this website?

Participant data are held and governed by the responsible research institutions. Any proposed access or analysis requires a project-specific discussion, appropriate approvals and agreed data arrangements.

Network activities

Common priorities.
Collaborative work.

Connecting cohort teams, sharing methods
and developing research across settings.

Cohort collaboration

Connect population research teams, exchange field experience and develop comparable questions that reflect local priorities.

Shared methods & data

Work together on measurement, data quality and approaches for linking health, household and environmental observations.

Capacity & peer learning

Share technical knowledge through workshops, mentoring, learning materials and research exchanges between institutions.

Joint research & translation

Develop multi-site studies, proposals and publications, and connect adaptation evidence with public health practice.

Activities take shape through joint projects and exchanges. Project agreements define responsibilities, ethics, authorship and data access with the participating institutions.
