Classifying local environmental attributes for healthier, more equitable child development [ 2018 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Xiaoqi Feng (Principal investigator)

Brief description Theory and evidence suggests rapid physical and social development makes children more sensitive to the impacts of environmental exposures than adults. Paradoxically, children’s environmental health is under-researched. My four-year vision is to support efforts to improve the health of children and to narrow child health inequities by co-producing new evidence that will help advocate for spatially targeted prevention initiatives and public policies in Australia.
