The Climate Transformation Programme (CTP) aims to develop, inspire and accelerate knowledge-based solutions and educate future leaders to establish the stable climate and environment necessary for resilient, just, and sustainable Southeast Asian societies. Climate change is a physical and environmental event with significant psychological impacts becoming more salient. Climate change events constitute a new source of stressors that individuals have to cope with, both psychologically and practically in their daily lives. The purpose of this project is to broaden understanding about the psychological effects of climate change and how climate action could contribute to coping and resilience in individuals. Different research methodologies will be utilized including focus group discussions, longitudinal surveys, and intervention trials. Findings from this project will support translational efforts to promote climate action and psychological health.

The Research Fellow will be based at the Earth Observatory of Singapore (EOS) and will engage in research activities

EOS is a University Research Institute at Nanyang Technological University that conducts fundamental research on earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and climate change in and around Southeast Asia, towards safer and more sustainable societies. For more information on EOS please visit
