ABOUT CLIMATERNA
Climaterna: Climate Change and Maternal and Perinatal Health Observatory
Climaterna is an innovative initiative that connects maternal and perinatal health data with climate and demographic indicators, creating a comprehensive and unprecedented data repository in Brazil.
This project, developed by the Brazilian Institute of Data Science (BI0S) at the University of Campinas (Unicamp) and other institutions, aims to analyze how the impacts of climate change and pollution affect the health of pregnant women and newborns.
The Project
Climate change presents significant challenges for maternal and perinatal health.
Climaterna brings together data from multiple sources, including public health records, climate data, and demographic data, with the goal of:
01
UNDERSTANDING
02
DEVELOPING
03
OFFERING
Why is Climaterna Important?
The integration of health and climate data is crucial for understanding the impacts of climate change on public health.
With this analysis, Climaterna seeks to provide insights for formulating initiatives in both the public and private sectors that protect the most vulnerable populations, especially pregnant women and newborns.
In this way, we promote more resilient cities prepared to face extreme climate events.
