🌏Did you know the WHO #COP29 #climatechange & #health report has a section dedicated to #housing? @ANGLIhere @MGHToll & @rebecca_bentley's research, cited in the report, shows how critical housing is to protecting people from the health impacts of climate change. Links⬇️

🏠Challenges and strategies in quantifying the effects of housing on health🏠 Quantifying housing’s impact on health has many challenges. This new paper offers several strategies for causal research on housing and health. @ANGLIhere @ke_mason @iamyuxi @rebecca_bentley

#ICYMI...NEW REVIEW: A State-of-the-Science Review of the Effect of Damp- and Mould-Affected Housing on Mental Health ➡️ buff.ly/3yOtjA1 @unimelbMSPGH @ANGLIhere @rebecca_bentley

🌡️In #Australia, the #energy burden increases with extreme #heat, and single-parent or lone-person households, residents living in poor-quality houses, and colder regions are at greater #risk. 👉nature.com/articles/s4324… @ANGLIhere @MGHToll @rebecca_bentley

🏠 damage caused by climate-related disasters can have a significant impact on our #mentalhealth . With an El Niño weather event upon us, it's crucial our focus shifts to housing as a way to prevent poor health outcomes post-disaster. @abcnews @ANGLIhere doi.org/10.1016/S2542-…

@Pendragoness53 I just tried to DM you to get your email but Twitter didn’t let me. My email is ang.li5@unimelb.edu.au if you could flick over your contact details when you get a chance, it would be really great.

@ANGLIhere Fantastic, plenty of lived experience Advocates out there willing to share if needed, congratulations!

Excited that I have been awarded a DECRA fellowship. I will be looking at how housing and housing policy can be leveraged to improve social wellbeing and climate resilience. Looking to forward to collaborating with many talented people in this space!!

@Pendragoness53 Thanks so much Marie! I will be sure to reach out!

Many of us sought relief from the #COVID #Lockdowns by visiting local parks 🏞️and waterways🏖️. New research by @ANGLIhere, @Adelle_Mansour_ and @rebecca_bentley shows just how much these green and blue spaces buffered us against poor #mentalhealth. doi.org/10.1016/j.heal…

📢New study in @socscimed estimates total health gains and cost savings of eradicating 'cold housing' in Australia. Findings showed that eliminating 'cold housing' would lead to substantial health gains, reductions in health inequalities, savings in health expenditure, and productivity gains. By disease, 7.1% of the discounted lifetime health gains were due to reductions in cardiovascular diseases (CVD), 32.4% due to respiratory disease, and 60.6% due to mental illness. A massive thank you to @Housing_CRE @TonyBlakely_PI @rebecca_bentley @ANGLIhere @hrs_andrabi and TimWilson for amazing support and mentorship during my post-doctoral journey (2021-2022)🙏🙏❤️@unimelbMSPGH @_PHAA_ @SydneySPH sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🎺🎺New paper with @ANGLIhere & @rebecca_bentley 👇 We looked at the long-term effects of climate-related disasters on people's wellbeing, their housing situtions post-disaster, and how housing vulnerabilities affected their recovery: thelancet.com/journals/lanpl…

💡New research by @Housing_CRE and @unimelbMSPGH shows there is a strong need for flexible housing support in Australia to reduce the #health impacts of disasters related to #climatechange @rebecca_bentley @ANGLIhere theconversation.com/climate-relate…

Renters with nowhere to go. Home owners forced into mortgage stress. If our homes are damaged by floods or fires, it damages our health for years afterwards. @ANGLIhere, Mathew Toll + @rebecca_bentley from @unimelb share their research: bit.ly/3CdikOJ

Housing unaffordability and mental health: dynamics across age and tenure. bit.ly/3ATpQ0b New open access paper shows the time trends for housing affordability (spoiler - age and tenure make a big difference)

What is in natural gas besides methane? Participants needed to help researchers measure the health impacts of using natural gas in our homes: bit.ly/KitchenStudy-AU #naturalgas #airpollution #healthyhousing

Our study shows that physical and mental health, housing affordability, household income, and community participation are significant risk factors for the health impact and recovery post climate related disasters.
