The following is an interview with Mr. Lucas Akio Iza Trindade and Dr. Flavia Mori Sarti: 

1. Congratulations on your recent publication. Could you briefly introduce yourself and share your current research focus with our readers?
   I’m a Ph.D. candidate at the School of Public Health, University of São Paulo, Brazil. My research revolves around evaluating public health systems, particularly access to and utilization of health services, with a focus on addressing inequalities.
   In our recent study, we explored financial protection in healthcare by analyzing catastrophic health expenditures and impoverishment. We examined how lifestyle factors, such as physical activity and smoking, influence these financial outcomes.
2. What are some key findings from your research?
   We discovered that healthier lifestyles—such as meeting physical activity recommendations and avoiding smoking—can significantly protect households from catastrophic health expenditures. This link highlights how lifestyle factors not only improve health outcomes but also serve as financial protection mechanisms.
   This insight is particularly relevant globally, as public health systems in low- and middle-income countries face increasing demand for cost-effective, sustainable healthcare. Promoting healthier lifestyles could help address these challenges by reducing financial burdens on households and improving population health.
3. What excites you the most about your work right now?
   I’m particularly inspired by the potential for lifestyle interventions to play a central role in public health strategies. Our findings highlight how promoting physical activity and other healthy behaviors can alleviate financial strain on households while improving population health.
   This approach is especially critical given the ongoing epidemiological transition in countries like Brazil, where non-communicable diseases are becoming more prevalent. Addressing these shifts through lifestyle-focused strategies could be transformative.
4. Have there been any unexpected findings or challenges in your research?
   One surprising discovery was that, even with Brazil’s universal healthcare system, lower-income groups remain at risk of impoverishment due to healthcare costs. This underscores the importance of addressing socioeconomic disparities.
   On a positive note, we also found that lifestyle factors like regular physical activity can significantly protect vulnerable populations from financial hardship. This reinforces the need to promote healthy behaviors, especially among disadvantaged groups.
5. Do you think promoting physical activity as a preventive measure can be made sustainable on a larger scale?
   Definitely. Sedentary lifestyles are a growing concern, particularly as younger populations face increasing risks of chronic diseases. Preventive measures focusing on physical activity, especially during leisure time, could reduce healthcare costs in the long term compared to traditional therapeutic approaches.
   The challenge is that the benefits of these interventions take time to manifest. However, with aging populations and rising sedentary behaviors, the time to act is now.
6. What do you hope readers take away from your paper?
   I hope it inspires more research into the intersections between impoverishment, catastrophic health expenditures, and lifestyle factors. While our study focused on physical activity, there’s a need to explore other aspects, such as dietary habits and mental health.
   Ultimately, I want to emphasize that lifestyle interventions are not just health strategies—they’re financial protection mechanisms as well. This is particularly important for low- and middle-income countries where preventive measures could have a lasting impact on health equity and economic stability.
7. How was your experience with IJERPH?
   It was excellent. IJERPH was highly recommended by my professors and colleagues at the University of São Paulo. I admire the journal’s emphasis on visibility and dialog, which contributes to the collective advancement of scientific knowledge.
   As an early career researcher, I appreciate the opportunity to share my work through such a reputable platform.

The following is an interview with Dr. Liv Yoon:

1. Congratulations on your published paper! Can you give us a brief introduction of yourself and your research for our readers?
Sure! My name is Liv Yoon, and I’m an assistant professor in the School of Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. My background is in social sciences, which might surprise some because many people associate kinesiology with physiology, biomechanics, or neuroanatomy. But there’s also a sociocultural side to kinesiology, which looks at human movement in a broader context—how our different ‘bodies’ (different groups of people) are both shaped by, and shape, social, cultural, political, and historical contexts. When we walk into a room, we’re not just bodies made of bones and muscles; we carry with us our cultural identities, socioeconomic status, and ethnic backgrounds, all of which shape our experiences and how others perceive us.

2. What inspired you to pursue this field of research?
My current work explores the intersection of climate change, health, and social inequities, with a focus on intersections with the housing crisis as well. I’m particularly focused on how climate change disproportionately impacts people who are already facing social and economic hardships. It's those in low-income neighborhoods, racialized communities, and marginalized groups who suffer the most from climate-related risks. I’m motivated by a mix of feelings—resentment, anger—but also admiration for the resilience of these communities who, despite their struggles, continue to work for the benefit of all. I believe these emotions can be a powerful force for social change. I also want to emphasize that to truly understand these issues, we need to go beyond the biomedical and physiological views of health and incorporate social and political understandings of bodies and health.

3. How is your research going so far?
I’m a relatively new professor, having started in January 2023, so I’m still in the early stages of several projects. A lot of my work involves community engagement and participatory methods, working directly with those most affected. It’s humbling, and also energizing. The issues are urgent, and while it can feel overwhelming, it’s also motivating to see people—including students—respond with action instead of despair.

4. What do you hope readers will take away from your paper?
For people living with schizophrenia, in particular, the paper challenges the usual biomedical understanding of thermoregulation. I want to highlight that those living with schizophrenia, live with multiple forms of marginalization and discrimination that affect how they experience climate change. I hope readers come away understanding that health impacts from climate change are not just about biology but are deeply intertwined with social inequities. We need to consider the whole person and their life context, and how these are shaped by societal, structural forces.

5. What advances would you like to see in your field over the next decade?
I hope we see more efforts to connect the dots between various social inequities and the climate crisis. In Vancouver, for example, there’s a big intersection between the housing crisis and climate vulnerability. Affordable housing is often the least climate-resilient, and those living in it typically also face other forms of marginalization. Addressing these issues isn’t just about solving one problem—it’s about understanding how these crises intersect and finding solutions that address multiple needs at once.

6. What made you choose to publish in IJERPH, and how was your experience with the journal?
I’ve been a long-time reader of IJERPH, and I know the journal publishes high-quality research. There was no question that we wanted to submit here. The publication process was fantastic. The reviewers and editors were very responsive, and the turnaround was quick—everything was done in less than two or three months. Overall, it was a really positive experience.

“Adapting the Baseline Resilience Indicators for Communities (BRIC) Framework for England: Development of a Community Resilience Index”
by Christine Camacho, Roger T. Webb, Peter Bower and Luke Munford
Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2024, 21(8), 1012; https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph21081012

The following is an interview with Dr. Christine Camacho:

1. Congratulations on your recent publication! Could you start by introducing yourself and your current research to our readers?
Thank you! I work as a consultant in public health in the NHS in England and I’m also pursuing a Ph.D. with the Applied Research Collaboration in Greater Manchester, which is part of the NIHR infrastructure. I have done research focusing on various public health issues, from early child development to “deaths of despair”. In my latest research, which is featured in the paper we’re discussing, we developed a Community Resilience Index for England. It examines how different regions across the country are able to adapt to various shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic or economic hardships, and how robust these communities are in facing such challenges.

2. What aspects of this work are you most excited about right now?
One of the most exciting aspects is that this research provides the first-ever comprehensive look at resilience across England. It’s the first time we’ve been able to measure community resilience in such a systematic way. What’s particularly intriguing is the potential for local authorities and policymakers to use this index to identify the strengths and weaknesses of their communities. This data could inform interventions that help support these areas. Additionally, the timing of the study is significant, given that the UK government is currently conducting a resilience review, partly spurred by the COVID-19 inquiry. There are important questions being raised about how prepared we were going into the pandemic, and how we can better build resilience for future challenges.

3. What unexpected findings did you come across during your research?
One surprising finding was the strong regional variation in resilience scores. While we expected some differences due to known inequalities in the UK, the results highlighted a pronounced north–south divide, with the north of England showing lower resilience than the south. We also noticed that coastal areas tended to have lower resilience scores, which suggests specific vulnerabilities that might require tailored interventions. Another interesting result came from comparing resilience scores with deprivation levels. While we generally expected more deprived areas to have lower resilience, there were some outliers—mostly in London—where areas with high deprivation had unexpectedly high resilience. This led us to consider whether a “capital city effect” might be at play, where better infrastructure and economic resources could boost resilience even in more deprived neighborhoods.

4. What do you think is the innovation of this paper? How did you find innovation in writing the paper?
This paper was innovative in several ways. We adapted the Baseline Resilience Indicators for Communities (BRIC) model, originally developed in the US, and tailored it for the English context. We considered the types of hazards relevant to the UK, which are different from those in the southeastern US where BRIC was initially used. For example, instead of focusing on natural disasters like hurricanes, we looked at more chronic issues like the cost of living crisis, the war in Ukraine, and the effects of Brexit. Methodologically, we wanted our approach to be as evidence-based as possible, relying on a systematic review and using principal component analysis to define sub-indices and weight indicators. This rigorous methodology ensures the index is robust and reliable.

5. What do you hope that readers will gain from your paper?
I hope readers gain an understanding of how complex it is to measure community resilience—it’s not something you can measure directly. A composite index is a useful tool for capturing this complexity. We also want to encourage others to not shy away from tackling such difficult issues. While there are always strengths and weaknesses in any methodology, we’ve worked hard to ensure this index is robust. Another important point is that this research measures resilience at a single point in time, but we recognize that the resilience we observe today is shaped by historical events, like the deindustrialization of mining communities. Lastly, we’ve developed an interactive tool to make the data accessible for local authorities and others who want to explore resilience at a more granular level. I’ll share the link with you—it would be great to include it with the paper! (https://christine-l-camacho.github.io/CRI_England/)

6. Which research topics do you think will be of particular interest to the research community in the coming years?
Resilience is definitely going to remain a key area, particularly from a policy perspective. One potential direction is refining the Community Resilience Index to measure resilience at smaller geographical scales, like neighborhoods. We also see a lot of potential in involving communities more directly in this research. While we used national datasets for this study, having community participation could add valuable insights about what it’s like to live in certain areas. Another interesting possibility is to repeat this study over time, creating longitudinal data that can help us assess whether interventions actually improve resilience.

7. How did you hear about IJERPH? And what is your impression of your publishing experience with IJERPH?
I consulted with some colleagues and reviewed the journal's website, which seemed like a perfect fit for my research. My Ph.D. is in public health, and I was particularly drawn to this journal because it takes a broad view of public health. My work on community resilience aligns well with the journal's focus on the intersection between people, place, and social environments. Additionally, I was impressed by the journal's statistics, particularly the quick publication times, which is important for getting research out promptly. Overall, my experience was very positive; I found the peer review process and the support from the editorial team to be excellent and efficient.

8. We are an open access journal. How do you think open access impacts authors?
I believe open access is significant. I’m fortunate that my Ph.D. funding covers the costs of open access publishing. For research aimed at policymakers and community stakeholders—who might not have access to paid journals—making information widely accessible is crucial.

Throughout the third quarter of 2024, research published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH, ISSN: 1660-4601) was featured over 471 times in news articles published by reputable media sources, such as Forbes, New York Post, and National Public Radio.

“Persons Experiencing Homelessness during Extreme Temperatures: Lessons for Promoting Socially Inclusive Adaptive Capacity”
by Courtney Cronley, Amanda Fackler, Jennifer M. First, Sangwon Lee and Iris Tsouris
Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2024, 21(8), 984; https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph21080984

The following is an interview with Prof. Dr. Courtney Cronley:

1. Could you briefly introduce yourself to our readers? Could you introduce your current research direction and provide an update on your progress?

I'm a professor in the College of Social Work at the University of Tennessee, and my research focuses on equity within the built environment. The built environment includes all the man-made infrastructure that shapes our society. My primary interest is in equity within our housing and transportation systems, specifically how access to affordable, quality housing and transportation resources affects people's ability to thrive and access essential goods and services.

The United States has a long history, particularly in the 20th century, of using practices like redlining to create structural disparities along racial lines. As a result, black, indigenous, and communities of color are less likely to live in areas with high-quality housing and are more likely to be in food deserts, healthcare deserts, and areas with lower-quality education and healthcare. Our transportation systems have often reinforced these disparities, with physical barriers like highways dividing predominantly African American communities from white ones, making it difficult for those without personal vehicles to access necessary resources.

These redlined communities also tend to have higher concentrations of environmental hazards, leading to increased health risks. My research examines how the built environment can put people at higher risk for environmental hazards and poor health. One particularly vulnerable group is people experiencing homelessness, who lack access to permanent housing and are often exposed to the elements, relying heavily on public transportation.

The paper I published focuses on how people living outside in the Southeast U.S. navigate their communities during extreme weather conditions to access shelter and relief. I found that the infrastructure in these areas often lacks the adaptive capacity to protect people from extreme temperatures. Public spaces that could offer relief, such as parks with tree canopies or benches, are often heavily policed, leaving people with few options other than huddling under bridges, which can lead to dangerous conditions. The study also highlighted the chronic exposure to less extreme, but still challenging, temperatures. For instance, in Knoxville, where the study took place, people experiencing homelessness have access to daytime shelter only when temperatures reach certain thresholds, like 32°F or 90°F. However, if the temperature stays at 43°F for an extended period, these individuals are exposed to the elements day and night without relief, which can be unbearable. This has led me to consider how we define risk, particularly in the context of extreme heat. Current definitions often reflect the perspectives of housed individuals, but for those without housing, the chronic exposure to even moderate temperatures can significantly heighten their risk.

2. What do you think is the biggest challenge currently in your area of research?

Considering my research, the most commonly cited barrier and challenge is access to affordable housing. This is a critical issue, as the lack of access to affordable, quality housing is the common denominator in homelessness. While various behavioral health factors can increase the risk of homelessness, the underlying issue remains the shortage of affordable housing.

In the context of a warming climate, the problems associated with the lack of housing are becoming more acute, particularly concerning health. Being without permanent shelter is incredibly detrimental to one’s health; it’s likely one of the highest risks for poor health outcomes. Humans need shelter—it’s a basic necessity. However, in American communities, where there is no guaranteed right to housing and it’s left to the private market, it becomes challenging.

Developers, who are in the business of building housing, often lack incentives to build affordable housing because it’s costly, and the profits are much lower compared to market-rate housing, which can be four or five times as expensive. Without a guaranteed right to housing in the United States, the private market will never meet the demand for affordable housing, particularly for those living at or below the poverty level.

3. Which research topics do you think will be of particular interest to the research community in the coming years?

I think climate change is increasingly becoming a critical area of study, but there’s surprisingly little research on homelessness and climate change—only a couple dozen studies exist. This is an emerging field, and more attention is likely to be drawn to it as the impacts of climate change become more apparent.

For instance, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is already hosting webinars on how to address extreme weather and the need for more daytime shelters. However, there are currently no comprehensive policies within HUD specifically addressing the health impacts of climate change on individuals experiencing homelessness. This is a significant gap that will likely lead to important policy recommendations as more empirical evidence on the physical, mental, and behavioral health impacts of climate change emerges.

One area that has been understudied is the nexus between climate change and behavioral health. In my research, I’ve found that as winters become more inclement—not necessarily colder, but wetter—people experiencing homelessness often find themselves confined to their tents. This confinement can lead to boredom and anxiety, which some individuals cope with through activities like adult coloring books or reading. However, when those distractions run out, cravings for substances can set in. People have reported using substances as a coping mechanism in extreme weather, whether it’s too hot to sleep, too cold, or they’re isolated for extended periods.

Looking ahead, I think artificial intelligence will play a role in this field as well. AI-driven climate models could help better predict extreme weather and redefine what constitutes extreme weather for different populations, whether housed or unhoused. Currently, there’s no effective way to warn people living in camps about impending extreme weather because they often lack cell phones and live off the grid. Developing mechanisms to inform and protect these vulnerable populations is crucial.

So, in summary, the impacts of climate change on physical, mental, and behavioral health, policy recommendations, community responses, and the role of AI in predictive modeling and outreach to hard-to-reach populations are all critical areas of focus moving forward.

4. Do you have any advice for aspiring young researchers looking to make a meaningful impact in their respective fields?

I would say that collecting primary data is one of the best approaches. When you talk to people and hear their stories, many of your assumptions can be dispelled, refined, or changed. This firsthand insight gives you a deeper understanding of the issues. Seeing the conditions people are living in—whether it's without permanent shelter, in crumbling affordable housing, or after being evicted—provides invaluable perspective. Experiencing situations like standing at a bus stop in 90-degree heat with cars speeding by, because public transportation is the only option, further illustrates the challenges people face. In addition to collecting data, I strongly recommend reading extensively. The more you read about what others are doing, the better you'll understand the direction of the research and the field as a whole. These are the two best pieces of advice I can offer.

5. What is your impression of the publishing experience with the IJERPH journal?

I thought the experience was quite positive. The journal and I went back and forth on revisions, and I appreciated their commitment to pushing me to produce the most critically thoughtful piece possible. This demonstrated a genuine dedication to the peer review process rather than a profit-driven publishing approach.

6. What is your opinion of the open access model of publishing?

I believe the open access publishing model, combined with rigorous peer review, represents the gold standard for the future of scholarly communication. Information should not be restricted by privilege or positionality, ensuring that everyone has access. However, this doesn’t mean that just anyone should be able to publish anything and claim it as science. Peer review is crucial because it ensures that what is published is rigorous, valid, honest, and critically evaluated. While mistakes can still occur, the peer review process provides a necessary framework for maintaining the quality of scholarship. Therefore, rigorous peer review within an open access framework is likely the best model for the future of science.
