This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund a study on the cumulative demographic and health effects of climate exposures across the life course in Indonesia and Mexico. The $171,498 award, effective September 20, 2024 through August 31, 2026, will enable researchers at the Pennsylvania State University to analyze how temperature and precipitation anomalies during critical life stages (early childhood, adolescence, early adulthood) impact older adults' health, economic status, and migration behaviors. The study will leverage longitudinal survey data and high-resolution climate data to measure outcomes such as body mass index, hemoglobin levels, blood pressure, consumption expenditures, and lifetime migration status. The project will also include a sub-award to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to collaborate on the research. This study aims to provide new evidence on the links between climate change and older adults' demographic and health outcomes in developing countries facing increasing climate change and population aging.
