Join the Collaborative Centre for Climate, Health and Sustainable Care for an outdoor interactive workshop titled “Tick walk & talk”.
The workshop will be led by Antonia Di Castri, PhD student and Collaborative Centre Graduate Fellow.
Building upon findings from a critical more-than-literature review, Antonia will take participants on a walk and talk about the roles of the land, ticks, animals, and the relationships connecting them in public health approaches to tick-borne disease prevention. This interactive workshop will bring people from public health, infectious disease, conservation, environment, and climate health backgrounds together to walk, talk, learn, share, and imagine together what tick-borne disease prevention might become if we take the relationships between infectious disease and climate change seriously.
This gathering will be an important exercise in applying critical social scientific theory to public health research and practice, and connecting entangled issues of climate change and infectious diseases.
