Climate Change Survey for Medical Doctors

Dear Environment and Health Section members, You are invited to give your contribution in Survey: Climate Change Survey for Medical Doctors.

This research, titled “Awareness, Knowledge, and Perception of Medical Doctors on Climate Change and its Health Effects”, was planned within the framework of the The Environment, Climate and Health Cooperation Project (ÇİSİP)* to measure the awareness, perception, and knowledge of healthcare professionals about the health effects of climate change. With the results obtained from your answers, activities can be planned to increase the awareness of health professionals about climate change and eliminate the lack of knowledge in this respect. Therefore, it is essential that you answer all questions sincerely.
