Stakeholders Engagement

NATIONAL & INTERNATIONAL STAKEHOLDERS

CPM International Research Institute for Climate Health continues to advance collaborative engagement across national and international institutions committed to climate-health preparedness, infectious disease surveillance, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), pathogen monitoring, and One Health innovation.

As part of its emerging implementation and research framework, the Institute is actively fostering multidisciplinary partnerships aimed at strengthening climate-sensitive infectious disease response systems, operational surveillance, public health preparedness, and implementation science in Nigeria and beyond.

NATIONAL STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENTS

The Institute maintains ongoing institutional and stakeholder interactions involving:
  • Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, Nigeria
  • Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC), Ile-Ife
  • Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC)
  • Federal and State Ministries relevant to health, climate, research, and innovation
  • Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund)-related academic and research engagements
  • Clinical, academic, and public health stakeholders across Nigeria
These engagements support the Institute’s growing operational platform in climate-health surveillance, respiratory disease monitoring, antimicrobial resistance awareness, epidemiological coordination, and implementation-focused research activities.

INTERNATIONAL STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENTS

CPM International Research Institute for Climate Health is also developing scientific interactions and collaborative engagements with international researchers, institutions, and global health stakeholders committed to advancing climate-health innovation and infectious disease preparedness.
 
Current and emerging engagements include interactions connected with:
  • Professor Harald Renz, Institute of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiochemistry, Philipps University Marburg, Germany
  • Wellcome Trust, United Kingdom
  • Volkswagen Foundation, Germany
  • Belmont Forum
  • Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), USA
  • International scientific and implementation research networks
 
These collaborations are intended to strengthen global scientific exchange, operational research capacity, implementation partnerships, surveillance innovation, and future integrated pathogen surveillance preparedness efforts within low- and middle-income settings.

PILOT IMPLEMENTATION PLATFORM

As part of its implementation activities, the Institute has commenced the Osun State Climate–Health Surveillance Pilot in Southwest Nigeria in collaboration with Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC).
 
The pilot focuses on:
  • Climate-sensitive respiratory disease surveillance
  • Epidemiological data coordination
  • Climate-health burden assessment
  • Operational public health implementation activities
  • Future scalable surveillance preparedness
The Osun pilot serves as a foundational implementation platform for future expansion, collaboration, and evidence-based climate-health intervention research across Nigeria’s geopolitical regions.
 
CPM International Research Institute for Climate Health remains committed to advancing responsible scientific collaboration, implementation research, public health innovation, and scalable climate-health preparedness systems through multidisciplinary partnerships and operational engagement.

Global Health Focus

We believe implementation research, surveillance innovation, and multidisciplinary collaboration are critical to addressing the emerging climate-health challenges of our time.
