Educational Resource Hub
This crowd-sourced database of educational resources is meant to encompass any tools relevant to people working in the climate and health space. This might include submissions by the content authors themselves, or simply recommendations from community members for resources they have found helpful. This collection includes only links directing users to existing resources - it is not meant to house or archive content.
Keep in mind, this is a crowd-sourced database. CAFE does not verify the quality nor endorse the use of any materials included in this database. Make sure to follow the terms of use and attribution requirements specific to each resource. If you have created or used sources that would be relevant to the community of practice, please add it to the database by entering it in the submission form below.
A collaborative, community-informed resource from the Mama-Pikin Foundation designed to spark learning, reflection, and conversation. This tool was developed with pregnant women, health providers, and community partners, and can support the implementation of solutions for extreme heat during pregnancy.
The Billion-Dollar Disaster research analysis is now hosted by Climate Central, ensuring this vital dataset remains accessible and regularly updated to track weather and climate-related disaster risks.
This now-complete webinar series from the National Academy of Medicine explores high-impact interventions that the health care workforce can implement within clinical settings to enhance sustainability, while also making the business case for climate action.
NRDC released new fact sheets on support for heat protection standards for workers in Pennsylvania and Virginia, with more states coming soon.
CrisisReady, a collaboration between Harvard Data Science Initiative and Direct Relief, announces the release of Climateverse India: an open-source, user-focused catalog of Indian climate, environmental, social, economic and health data. Climateverse streamlines data discovery and analytic design with targeted AI and curated visual metadata to provide resources for policymakers and researchers fighting climate hazards.
The Lead Service Line Replacement Cost Calculator (LSLRCC) is a free, EPA-aligned, multilingual planning tool that helps governments, utilities, and communities model the financial needs for replacing lead service lines. Rising global temperatures and greater seasonal fluctuations can increase dissolved lead release, amplifying the health risks that the tool is designed to help prevent. The LSLRCC supports compliance with the U.S. EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Improvements while aligning with global climate and health priorities by reducing lead exposure, advancing long-term public health, and protecting ecosystems. By providing transparent cost modeling, the tool helps local governments, Tribal nations, and educators advocate for funding and equity-focused solutions in drinking water infrastructure planning.
