Idea

[Climate services for the health sector in Ecuador include four main components;

i) observation, monitoring and data collection and processing,

ii) climate and health research on modelling and forecasting,

iii) communication to the public health community and general audience, and

iv) interdisciplinary capacity building to the climate and health community

Prior studies have focused on providing the evidence base for the effects of climate on health, and improvements in seasonal forecasts in the region]

Determinants of health - Social- ecological vulnerability
