Investigating direct and indirect pathways between climate and mental health and wellbeing and development and testing of localized, impact-based early warning systems for climate vulnerable communities in Uganda, Tanzania, and Kenya
REFNo: SS4713ES
Objective 1:
To analyze and compare the prevalence and frequency of extreme weather events (EWEs) in 18 vulnerable communities using triangulated meteorological data from public sources and data collected from local weather stations over a 9-month baseline period.
Objective 2:
To conduct monthly household-level surveys with 103 women from each of the 18 communities to document their experiences of EWEs, thereby developing localized impact-based thresholds that reflect the specific impacts of these events on community members.
Objective 3:
To examine the relationships between climate conditions, as indicated by the impact-based thresholds from Objective 2, and measures of mental health, well-being, and interpersonal violence using modified vector autoregressive (VAR) analysis on data collected from monthly surveys.
Objective 4:
To implement a step-wedge cluster randomized control trial assessing the effects of a localized early warning system (EWS) on women's mental health, well-being, and interpersonal violence in the 18 vulnerable communities, with half receiving the EWS for the first 9 months and all receiving it for the subsequent 9 months.

The specific objectives are to:
1. Map existing evidence on how short-term medical and dental missions organize provider roles and workflows through a scoping review.
2. Explore how institutional texts (e.g., protocols, referral tools, policies) and local practices shape day-to-day decision-making among local and visiting providers. 3. Analyze how decision-making hierarchies and communication structures influence care delivery and interprofessional collaboration across local and international teams.
