Using ethnography and legal analysis, it highlights their role as investigators and advocates. The work aims to improve policy, challenge marginalisation, and recognise families’ critical role in uncovering truth and justice.

This research evaluates whether reflective cool roofs can reduce indoor temperatures and improve health in climate-vulnerable communities. A global randomised controlled trial across four countries will assess impacts on physical and mental health, productivity, and hospitalisations, providing evidence on whether this affordable intervention is cost-effective and capable of saving lives.
