Biography

I am a PhD candidate in Climate Change and Education at the University of The Gambia, interested in schoolchildren's health in the context of climate change. Indeed, school-aged children are particularly exposed to health risks associated with climate change. Changes in climatic parameters such as minimum, maximum, and average temperatures and rainfall can promote the proliferation of vectors (mosquitoes and snails) responsible for transmitting malaria and schistosomiasis. These diseases compromise children's health, education, and cognitive development.
