Climate Cares Centre

Mental health and wellbeing in the climate emergency
Climate Cares is a team of researchers, designers, policy experts and educators working to understand and support mental health in the current climate and ecological crises.
"Climate change is an underappreciated mental health emergency. This is a technical, social, and emotional issue."
Professor Sir David Nabarro, IGHI Co-Director
What we do
We enable people, communities and systems to have both the emotional resilience and transformative potential to cope with the climate emergency. We work collectively for a safer climate future that centres mental health and wellbeing.
Our vision is for individuals, communities and healthcare systems to have the knowledge, tools, and resources to become resilient to the mental health impacts of climate change.
We achieve our vision through four pillars of our work: Research, Policy and Implementation, Education and Awareness, Intervention Design
