Project Summary The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI), in collaboration with partners at Oregon MESA (MESA), Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) and the World Forestry Center (WFC), proposes Wildfires and Human Health in a Changing Climate, a project to promote public understanding of environmental health research and its relevance to the health impacts of large and severe wildfires. This project is made possible by a five-year Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Project deliverables include:  Bilingual (Spanish/English) 1,400 ft.2 traveling exhibition  Project website  Educators’ guide for museum staff and classroom teachers The exhibition and programs will focus on current research on the health impacts of large and severe wildfires, and will reach a national audience of family visitors, with a special emphasis on youth underrepresented in STEM ages 11–17. The project will be developed biculturally and bilingually (Spanish/English) to provide accessibility to Latine and Spanish-preferring audiences. The visitor experiences will be co-developed with youth using a human centered design process and tested with youth and family audiences. The project has four specific aims that primarily target youth (ages 11–17) and their families:  Foster public understanding of the health impact of wildfire and smoke exposure, especially on vulnerable and sensitive populations.  Promote health strategies to assess risks and minimize harms of wildfire and smoke exposure.  Foster public understanding of how land use practices and climate change contribute to more catastrophic wildfires.  Promote and explore strategies to mitigate and adapt to wildfire and climate change, especially in fire management and forest restoration. A collaborative, multidisciplinary team from MESA, OHSU, and WFC, with OMSI personnel with expertise in informal science education and bilingual exhibit development, will work together to ensure that current science is accurately interpreted and effectively presented to reach intended audiences. The project will foster better public understanding of the health impacts of large and severe wildfires, and awareness of its causes and strategies for mitigation and adaptation. Visitors will explore wildfire and human health through a variety of forms—multisensory hands-on interactive exhibits, graphic panels, real objects, personal stories from frontline communities, and an accompanying website. Following the project’s five-year development, the exhibition will begin an eight-year national tour, reaching more than one million people.

项目摘要 俄勒冈州科学与工业博物馆（OMSI）与俄勒冈州梅萨（梅萨）的合作伙伴合作， 俄勒冈州健康与科学大学（OHSU）和世界林业中心（WFC）提出野火和 气候变化中的人类健康，促进公众对环境健康的了解的项目 研究及其与大型和严重野火对健康影响的相关性。这个项目是由 美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）颁发的为期五年的科学教育合作奖（SEPA）。 项目交付成果包括： 双语（西班牙语/英语）1，400 ft.2巡回展览 项目网站 博物馆工作人员和课堂教师的教育工作者指南 该展览和项目将重点关注目前对大型和严重野火对健康影响的研究， 并将面向全国家庭游客观众，特别强调在国内代表性不足的年轻人 STEM年龄11-17。该项目将以双语（西班牙语/英语）的方式发展， 拉丁语和西班牙语偏好的观众。游客体验将与 设计过程以人为本，并在年轻人和家庭观众中进行测试。 该项目有四个具体目标，主要针对青年（11-17岁）及其家庭： 促进公众了解野火和烟雾暴露对健康的影响，特别是对 脆弱和敏感的人群。 促进健康战略，以评估风险，并尽量减少野火和烟雾暴露的危害。 * 促进公众了解土地使用做法和气候变化如何促进更多的 灾难性的野火 促进和探索减轻和适应野火和气候变化的战略，特别是在火灾方面 管理和森林恢复。 来自梅萨，OHSU和WFC的协作，多学科团队，OMSI人员具有以下方面的专业知识 非正式科学教育和双语展览发展将共同努力， 准确地解释并有效地呈现给目标受众。该项目将促进更好地 公众对大规模和严重野火的健康影响的了解，以及对其原因的认识， 缓解和适应战略。游客将通过各种各样的方式探索野火和人类健康。 形式-多感官动手互动展品，图形面板，真实的对象，来自前线的个人故事 社区和一个附带的网站。经过五年的发展，展览将 开始为期八年的全国巡演，覆盖人数超过100万。
