MPhil Project: Climate change and the Republic of Ireland: Societal health Impacts and Solutions

The project will quantify the current and likely future costs of climate change on human health and wellbeing in the Republic of Ireland. The direct costs, comprising all those incurred (e.g. healthcare infrastructure, staff costs, etc.) in treating a physical and/or mental health condition, will be assessed using Time Driven Activity Based Costing. The overarching goal is to provide a bottom line for climate change associated health/wellbeing impacts to allow for cost/benefit analyses and research-led governmental budget allocation and policy formation.
