CHART的使命是产生与气候相关的健康风险的新知识 改变城市地区，特别是与热暴露有关的地区，并将这些知识转化为行动 通过平等的伙伴关系，增进健康。该中心有四个目标：（1）开发资源， 支持CCH研究并与NIH的CCH实践社区联系;（2）开展面向行动的， 跨学科的卫生协调委员会研究，以设计未来的干预措施和政策;（3）利用 CHART转化研究框架，以维持和丰富与社区合作伙伴的关系;以及（4） 通过培训和指导促进CCH研究的发展。通过提供基础设施支持， 开展新的研究，提高研究能力，加强已建立的社区伙伴关系， 并作为确定应对气候变化引起的健康风险的创新方法的中心 如高温暴露，CHART将促进与社区互利伙伴关系和合作 卫生协调委员会的工作不仅是对利益相关者的一种鼓励，同时也吸引了有才华的研究人员来维持和扩大卫生协调委员会的实践社区。 最终，这些努力将导致资源不足的城市居民的健康状况得到切实改善。 亚特兰大的社区，中心建设的经验将使全国和世界各地的其他城市受益， 他们对减轻气候变化对健康影响的追求。

CHART: OVERALL - PROJECT SUMMARY According to the United Nations, 87% of the U.S. population and 68% of the world population are projected to live in cities by 2050, and climate change will have significant impacts on the health and wellbeing of urban populations especially in under-resourced communities through various pathways. For example, the spatial variation in ambient temperature has been shown to result in heat exposure disparities associated with low- income minority communities. The Emory Climate & Health Actionable Research and Translation (CHART) Center aims to become a hub that will advance and translate research on climate risks to protect the health of under-resourced urban populations. Atlanta, with its unique environmental and health challenges, historical legacy, and longstanding partnerships with community and academic stakeholders, is an ideal location for CHART's central research theme of lowering climate-related disease burdens in under-resourced urban communities. CHART's mission is to generate new knowledge about the health risks associated with climate change in urban areas, particularly those related to heat exposure, and to translate this knowledge into action through equitable partnerships that enhance health. The center has four aims: (1) to develop resources to support CCH research and connect with NIH's CCH Community of Practice; (2) to conduct action-oriented and transdisciplinary CCH research towards the design of future interventions and policy; (3) to leverage the CHART translational research framework to sustain and enrich relationships with community partners; and (4) to advance the growth of CCH research through training and mentorship. By providing infrastructural support, conducting novel research, increasing research capacity, strengthening established community partnerships, and serving as a hub for identifying innovative approaches to address climate change-induced health risks such as heat exposure, CHART will foster mutually beneficial partnership and collaboration with community stakeholders while also attracting talented researchers to sustain and expand the CCH Community of Practice. Ultimately, these efforts will lead to tangible improvements in the health outcomes of under-resourced urban communities in Atlanta, and the center building experience will benefit other cities nationally and worldwide in their pursuit of mitigating the health impact of climate change.
