PhD Studentship in Climate Change and Healthy Ageing: Unravelling Perceptions and Impact of Climate Change Among Older People - Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom - Newcastle University
Description
Award summary
100% of home tuition fees paid and annual stipend (living expenses) of £19,237 from 24/25. Also a significant research training support grant of approx. £5000 per annum to cover research costs (e.g. data costs) and conferences.
Successful international candidates will be required to fund the difference between the home fees and international fees.
Overview
This project will focus on gaining a better understanding of the impact of climate hazards on healthy ageing. Older people are disproportionally affected by climate change. This is due to a heightened vulnerability of older individuals, stemming from physiological, social, and contextual factors. Older people have often been neglected in climate change impact studies. In combination with the interests of the selected student, a plan will be developed to generate evidence on the impact of climate change on healthy ageing and/or on perceptions of climate change among older people. Given that healthy ageing is a broad concept, the outcome could focus on its broad conceptualisation or on specific sub-domains. This could focus on generating epidemiological evidence on health impacts, using secondary data sources, including cohorts of ageing populations and/or electronic medical records datasets. Mixed-methods research, which may include conducting qualitative interviews with older adults, will be encouraged.
Number of awards: 1
Start date: September 2024.
Award duration: The funding covers a three-year PhD.
Application closing date: 1st May 2024
Sponsor: Newcastle University (NU Futures)
