The Journey of Connecting Climate Minds

Below you'll find the story of how Connecting Climate Minds came to be, our mission, and the passionate team behind our quest to integrate mental health and climate change research and action.

Connecting Climate Minds Project

What is Connecting Climate Minds all about? The short answer: Connection. Connecting Climate Minds is working to foster connections between people all over the world to come together to understand and respond to the deep interconnections between climate change and mental health. Our core aims are to 1) develop an aligned and inclusive agenda for research and action, grounded in lived experience expertise of mental health challenges in the context of climate change, and 2) build connected communities of practice for climate change and mental health in seven global regions, equipped to enact this agenda.

Connecting Climate Minds Hub

The Connecting Climate Minds Hub is an innovative digital platform designed to unite the fields of mental health and climate change. It serves as a collaborative space for researchers, policymakers, educators, and community groups to share knowledge, resources, and experiences. Its aim is to foster understanding, encourage interdisciplinary collaboration, and drive impactful action, all while providing a supportive community for those dedicated to these critical global issues.

Who is involved

We are a Wellcome funded project that brings together expertise across research, policy, practice, design, and lived experience from across the globe.
