Welcome to the digital home of the Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment (C-CHANGE), led by former U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy and associate directors Dr. Aaron Bernstein and Dr. Joseph Allen.
Based at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, C-CHANGE:
- Harnesses the best available science and supports innovative research to advance plans, policies, technologies, and products that benefit public health today while providing sound opportunities to stabilize our climate.
- Builds momentum for broad, bold actions by focusing on what matters to each one of us: our children, our family, our community, our country, and our world.
- Transforms science into meaningful actions everyone can take to deliver a healthier, more just, and sustainable world.
- Works with scientists across the Harvard Chan School to advance research and educate future leaders in health and climate change.
The Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health is the public health school of Harvard University, located in the Longwood Medical Area of Boston, Massachusetts. The school grew out of the Harvard-MIT School for Health Officers, the nation’s first graduate training program in population health, which was founded in 1913 and then became the Harvard School of Public Health in 1922.
Harvard’s T.H. Chan School of Public Health is currently ranked as the best school for public health in the world by the Academic Ranking of World Universities. It is also ranked as the third best public health school in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.
