世界各地的学者表示，土著人民经历了气候变化带来的一些最具破坏性的健康影响。然而，气候变化健康评估主要依赖于气候模型的技术数据，当地知识有限，几乎没有价值观驱动的社区数据。价值观驱动的数据提供了有关人们如何定义健康含义、他们的健康优先事项以及维持或改善健康的首选行动的重要信息。 Swinomish 印第安部落社区（美国华盛顿州）开发并实施了基于价值观驱动数据的气候变化健康评估。通过将西方学科（例如决策科学、行为研究）的工具和技术与当地本土的学习和分享方式相结合，成功地引出了、构建并最终总结了社区价值观。结果表明，评估有意义地吸引了社区成员，并将他们的知识和价值观有效地融入到决策过程中。评估结果通过提升健康优先事项、集中有限的精力和资源、确保社区成员和其他人致力于共同目标以及围绕预期结果达成一致，保护和加强 Swinomish 社区的健康和福祉。
Scholars worldwide have stated that some of the most devastating health impacts from climate change are experienced by Indigenous peoples. Yet, climate change health assessments rely primarily on technical data from climate models, with limited local knowledge and little to no values-driven community data. Values-driven data provide important information about how people define what health means, their health priorities, and preferred actions to maintain or improve health. The Swinomish Indian Tribal Community (Washington State, USA) developed and implemented a climate change health assessment founded on values-driven data. Successfully eliciting, structuring, and ultimately summarizing community values were achieved by incorporating tools and techniques from western disciplines (e.g., decision science, behavioral research) with local indigenous ways of learning and sharing. Results demonstrate that the assessment meaningfully engaged community members and effectively added their knowledge and values into the decision process. The assessment results protect and strengthen Swinomish community health and well-being by elevating health priorities, focusing limited energy and resources, ensuring that community members and others are working toward common goals, and establishing agreement around intended outcomes/results.
