Description

Drs Xingjie Wei and Andrea Taylor will lead an ESRC-funded project – ‘Climate change, social inequality & psychosocial wellbeing with emerging digital data – a multidisciplinary network between UK and South Korea’ – with researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in the South Korea.

Based on building a network of multidisciplinary researchers between the two countries, this project will investigate the effect of climate change on psychosocial wellbeing inequalities with emerging sources of digital data. Each side will contribute to this network with complementary expertise in climate adaption, risk communication, health inequality, data modelling and machine learning.
