This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health and Wellbeing and Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by providing an in-depth review of how the COVID-19 pandemic, and subsequent physical distancing measures, impacted people with NDDs and their family members.
This article advances SDG # 3, 13, and 15 by demonstrating a clear increase in heat-related illness incidence that parallels the temperature elevations from climate change.
This article advances SDG # 3, 8, 10, 13 and 16. The study from authors in Ghana detail the effects of climate change on workers’ health and productivity, especially those in lower income jobs and without policy or regulatory protections.

This study aims to serve as an essential first step to address this gap.
This paper is particularly relevant to investigations into the spread of organisms that remain close to shore over timescales of days-to-weeks, e.g., the spread of marine non-native species and pathogenetic parasites, but is equally relevant to simulations tracking the dispersal of eDNA or coastal pollutants such as oil and plastics.
Background: Evidence suggests that culturally adapted psychological interventions have some benefits in treating diverse ethnic groups.
