2010年至2012年期间，世界卫生组织太平洋技术支助司与卫生部门伙伴合作，在库克群岛、密克罗尼西亚联邦、斐济、基里巴斯、马绍尔群岛、瑙鲁、纽埃、帕劳、萨摩亚、所罗门群岛、汤加、图瓦卢和瓦努阿图等13个太平洋岛国领导了一个区域气候变化和健康脆弱性评估和适应规划项目。我们评估了太平洋岛屿国家对气候变化健康影响的脆弱性，并规划了适应战略，以尽量减少对健康的威胁。这项评估涉及定量和定性技术的结合。前者包括描述性流行病学、时间序列分析、泊松回归以及在少数可能的情况下对气候和气候敏感疾病数据进行空间建模；后者包括广泛的利益相关者磋商、反复建立共识和专家意见。使用“可能性与影响”矩阵对漏洞进行排名，并相应地确定适应策略的优先级和计划。太平洋岛国最优先考虑的气候敏感健康风险包括极端天气事件造成的创伤、与热有关的疾病、水和食物的安全和保障受到损害、媒介传播疾病、人畜共患病、呼吸系统疾病、心理疾病、非传染性疾病、人口压力和卫生系统缺陷。与这些气候变化和健康风险有关的适应战略可以按照太平洋区域许多国家的共同类别进行分类。太平洋岛国是世界上最容易受到气候变化对健康影响的国家之一。这种脆弱性是由于其独特的地理、人口和社会经济特征，以及它们面临与气候变化有关的不断变化的天气模式、所带来的健康风险，以及各国面对此类风险时管理和适应能力有限造成的。李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军，李建军。2016。气候变化对太平洋岛屿国家健康的影响：脆弱性和适应优先事项的区域评估。环境健康展望124:1707-1714；http://dx.doi.org/10.1289/ehp.1509756
Between 2010 and 2012, the World Health Organization Division of Pacific Technical Support led a regional climate change and health vulnerability assessment and adaptation planning project, in collaboration with health sector partners, in 13 Pacific island countries—Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Niue, Palau, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu. We assessed the vulnerabilities of Pacific island countries to the health impacts of climate change and planned adaptation strategies to minimize such threats to health. This assessment involved a combination of quantitative and qualitative techniques. The former included descriptive epidemiology, time series analyses, Poisson regression, and spatial modeling of climate and climate-sensitive disease data, in the few instances where this was possible; the latter included wide stakeholder consultations, iterative consensus building, and expert opinion. Vulnerabilities were ranked using a “likelihood versus impact” matrix, and adaptation strategies were prioritized and planned accordingly. The highest-priority climate-sensitive health risks in Pacific island countries included trauma from extreme weather events, heat-related illnesses, compromised safety and security of water and food, vector-borne diseases, zoonoses, respiratory illnesses, psychosocial ill-health, non-communicable diseases, population pressures, and health system deficiencies. Adaptation strategies relating to these climate change and health risks could be clustered according to categories common to many countries in the Pacific region. Pacific island countries are among the most vulnerable in the world to the health impacts of climate change. This vulnerability is a function of their unique geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic characteristics combined with their exposure to changing weather patterns associated with climate change, the health risks entailed, and the limited capacity of the countries to manage and adapt in the face of such risks.
