Today @OmarDaair & @AnnaWilsonFCDO launched a 🇬🇧 @ONS @AIMS_Rwanda project on using data to better understand the impact of climate change on health.

This will help policymakers in #Rwanda, the UK & beyond make better decisions on how to reduce the impacts on future generations.

"Mathematical models act as a bridge between what we know/understand and what we don’t.

Understanding is of fundamental importance in science because to find a sustainable solution for a problem, one must fully discern it first,"Prof. Wilfred Ndifon, AIMS Research Director.
