Breakout 1B: Grand Challenges – Social Responses to a Changing Environment
(Macro Social Work CE)
Environmental changes threaten human health and well-being in communities worldwide. population growth continues to be significant, and extreme weather events are increasing in frequency and severity. Environmental threats are a social justice issue: social, economic, and environmental inequities are deeply intertwined. People in poverty, children, older adults, members of racial or ethnic minority groups, and people with a history of mental health problems are especially vulnerable to the harmful impacts of environmental change.
