CLIMOS (Climate Monitoring and Decision Support Framework for Sand Fly-borne Diseases Detection and Mitigation with Cost-benefit and Climate-policy Measures), focuses on an important vector-borne diseases transmission system susceptible to climate and environmental changes.
CLIMOS seeks to provide a better understanding of climate and environmental drivers of Sand Fly-borne Diseases (SFBDs), to reduce model uncertainties for better prognosis of their current and potential spread, and to relate these to socioeconomics and provide risk assessments for a diversity of stakeholders.
CLIMOS will deliver public access interactive mapping and information services and associated tangible recommendations for public and animal health, to enable and encourage public (social, environmental, and financial) preparedness.
CLIMOS' overall goal is to minimise the risk of exposure to SFBDs in Europe, expansion to and from currently non-endemic regions and neighbouring countries, to protect the health and well-being of its citizens from climate and environment-related risks and impacts.
CLIMOS is targeting medical, veterinary, public and occupational health professionals, surveillance organizations, citizens, and all stakeholders that are responsible for monitoring and managing transmission and treatment, or those whose health is impacted or endangered by SFBDs.
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
