Synergies of participatory mapping and health geography: A scoping review
Oral histories on water, sanitation, and hygiene across women’s lifecourse and wellbeing implications in Ghana
Despite notable global progress in tackling water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), substantial challenges persist, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). While WASH in LMICs is a quintessentially gendered issue, with the burden falling primarily on women, their meaningful participation in WASH management is often questioned. And yet women have important stories to tell. This paper examines the experiences of WASH through the or…
Gender at the Crossroads of Mental Health and Climate Change: A Scoping Review
The global intensification of environmental change and its resulting impacts on mental health are becoming increasingly evident, with gender mediating these outcomes. The primary goal of this scoping review is to highlight gender-specific mental health exposures and experiences in the face of climatic stressors. We further examine the role of climate responses in perpetuating climate-induced mental health impacts on men and women in existing lite…
The 'survival job' pathway: Risk-focusing and occupational challenges among Canadian racialized and immigrant adults during the Covid-19 pandemic
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic were not equally distributed, with emerging research demonstrating that racialized and immigrant populations in Canada have been disproportionately affected. Drawing on the risk-focusing hypothesis, a theoretical lens that explicates how risk burden concentrates disproportionately in marginalized populations, government mitigation strategies such as shutdowns can be seen as exacerbating existing social and eco…
The critical need for Wash in emergency preparedness in health settings, the case of Covid-19 pandemic in Kisumu Kenya
A systematic global stocktake of evidence on human adaptation to climate change
Equity in human adaptation-related responses: A systematic global review
What If Your Husband Doesn’t Feel the Pressure? An Exploration of Women’s Involvement in WaSH Decision Making in Nyanchwa, Kenya
Access to water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH) is a major challenge in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Women and girls suffer the main burden of a lack of access to WaSH because they are primarily responsible for collecting water for their homes. However, they are often excluded from WaSH decision-making and implementation processes. This research sought to explore women's experiences in participating in WaSH decision-making through a case study in Nya…
