Project Summary The deleterious health impacts of disasters exacerbate pre-existing vulnerabilities and inequities,1 and disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minorities and the poor.2,3 However, the evidence base guiding our nation’s preparedness and response has been described as “seriously deficient.”4 Research conducted in the aftermath of a disaster is essential to building this evidence base, but is inherently challenging.5–7 Accordingly, an established and trained disaster research workforce is essential.4 However, we are unaware of any training that provides researchers hands-on, experiential training in environmental and public health disaster research methods, nor any with a specific focus on supporting underrepresented minority scholars in this domain. In response, the Increasing Diversity in and Equitable Access to Applied Learning in Disaster Research Response: IDEAAL DR2 program will provide intensive skills-based training in environmental and public health disaster research. We will partner with the Bill Anderson Fund (BAF), the only nonprofit organization that focuses explicitly on supporting underrepresented minority (URM) scholars in hazards and disaster research, to design an inclusive recruitment process and training program. IDEAAL DR2 will train up to 100 early career researchers across the U.S., with an intentional focus on URM scholars, to 1) Increase the knowledge and awareness of environmental and public health disaster research methods and skills among interdisciplinary, early career researchers who are interested in conducting public health-focused hazards and disaster research; and 2) Increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in hazards and disaster research by providing access to the necessary training, equipment, technology, and advising to support early-career researchers from historically underrepresented backgrounds in the development and completion of their own research projects. The course will include five modules with pre-course, in-person, and post-course components: 1) foundations of disaster research; 2) community engagement in disaster research, 3) disaster research methods; 4) tools and instrumentation for disaster research; and 5) disaster research design and implementation. For 12 months following the in-person course, Fellows will design and implement an independent disaster research project, leading to a paper of publishable quality, supported by monthly training workshops and peer accountability groups. To circumvent economic and institutional barriers that perpetuate systemic inequities, five URM Fellows annually, recruited in partnership with the BAF, will receive dedicated research advising and financial support for their project. Interdisciplinary program faculty have a strong and long-standing history of collaboration. They will be guided by an advisory committee and results from a rigorous formative and summative evaluation program. Course and evaluation materials will be disseminated broadly through the NIEHS DR2 and NIEHS Partnerships for Environmental Public Health Resources Portal, and evaluation findings will be shared with NIEHS and through conference presentations and publications.

项目摘要 灾害对健康的有害影响加剧了先前存在的脆弱性和不平等， 不成比例地影响种族和少数民族以及穷人。2，3然而，指导我们的证据基础 国家的准备和反应被描述为“严重不足”。4研究在 灾难的后果对建立这一证据基础至关重要，但本质上是具有挑战性的。 一支训练有素的灾害研究队伍是必不可少的。4然而，我们不知道有任何培训 为研究人员提供环境和公共卫生灾难研究方面的实践和经验培训 在这一领域，没有任何一种方法专门侧重于支持代表性不足的少数民族学者。在 灾害研究中应用学习的日益多样性和公平获取 回应：IDEAAL DR 2计划将提供环境和公共领域的强化技能培训 健康灾难研究。我们将与比尔安德森基金会（BAF）合作，这是唯一一个非营利组织。 该计划明确侧重于支持代表性不足的少数民族（URM）学者在危害和灾害 研究，设计一个包容性的招聘过程和培训计划。IDEAAL DR 2将训练多达100个 美国早期的职业研究人员，有意识地关注URM学者，以1）增加 环境和公共卫生灾害研究方法和技能的知识和认识， 跨学科，早期职业研究人员谁有兴趣进行公共卫生为重点的危害， 灾害研究; 2）通过以下方式增加危害和灾害研究的多样性、公平性和包容性： 提供必要的培训、设备、技术和咨询，以支持早期职业生涯 来自历史上代表性不足的背景的研究人员在发展和完成自己的 研究项目。该课程将包括五个模块与前课程，在人，和后课程 组成部分：1）灾害研究的基础; 2）社区参与灾害研究; 3）灾害 研究方法; 4）灾害研究的工具和仪器; 5）灾害研究设计和 实施.在现场课程结束后的12个月内，研究员将设计和实施一个 独立的灾难研究项目，最终形成可发表质量的论文，并得到每月培训的支持 讲习班和同侪问责小组。规避那些使人无法摆脱的经济和体制障碍， 系统性不公平，每年与BAF合作招募的五名URM研究员将获得专门的 为他们的项目提供研究咨询和财政支持。跨学科课程教师有一个强大的， 长期合作的历史。他们将由一个咨询委员会指导， 严格的形成性和总结性评估计划。将分发课程和评价材料 通过NIEHS DR 2和NIEHS环境公共卫生资源门户伙伴关系， 评估结果将通过会议报告和出版物与NIEHS分享。
