“…Interestingly, in this review, participatory action research, also known as community-based participatory research, was frequently used as an intervention across multiple studies reviewed [33,[69][70][71]75]. Participatory action research is traditionally thought of as a research method.…”

“…Four interventions established crisis counseling and psychiatric programs for mental health needs of individuals following a natural disaster [60][61][62][63]. Seven of these unique interventions encompassing multiple domains were conducted at the population level [30,33,[64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75]. One example of an intervention spanning multiple domains is the Farmworker Family Health Program, [30] which serves migrant farmworkers in the Southeastern US in an attempt to decrease multiple negative health impacts related to extreme heat and changes in vector ecology.…”

“…The program also highlights the importance of community collaborations when providing innovative clinical services and the need to meet the community where they stand [30]. In five studies, participatory action research was used to engage and mobilize community members on the planning, response, and recovery from various climate-related disasters in Hawaii, [70] Maryland, [69] and more broadly, across the U.S. [33] as well as to improve water quality on tribal lands, [75] and the use of personal protection equipment in citrus growers in Florida [71].…”

Background: Climate change, the greatest public health threat of the 21st century, will uniquely affect rural areas that are geographically isolated and experience greater health inequities. This systematic review describes and evaluates interventions to lessen the effects of climate change on human health in the rural United States, including interventions on air pollution, vector ecology, water quality, severe weather, extreme heat, allergens, and water and food supply. Methods: Searches were constructed based on the eight domains of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Framework “Impact of Climate Change on Human Health.'' Searches were conducted in EBSCO Environment Complete, EBSCO GreenFILE, Embase.com, MEDLINE via PubMed, and Web of Science. Duplicate citations were removed, abstracts were screened for initial inclusion, and full texts were screened for final inclusion. Pertinent data were extracted and synthesized across the eight domains. Article quality was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Results: Of 8,471 studies screened, 297 were identified for full text review, and a total 49 studies were included in this review. Across the domains, 34 unique interventions addressed: air pollution (n=8), changes in vector ecology (n=6), water quality (n=5), severe weather (n=3), extreme heat (n=2) increasing allergens (n=1), water and food supply (n=1), and interventions in multiple CDC domains (n=8). Participatory action research methodology was commonly used and strived to mobilize/empower communities to tackle climate change. Conclusion: Our review identified three randomized controlled trials, with two of these three published in the last five years. While original research on the impact of climate change on health has increased in the past decade, randomized control trials may not be ethical, cost effective, or feasible. There is a need for time-efficient and high-quality scholarship that investigates intervention efficacy and effectiveness for reducing health impacts of climate change upon rural populations.

“…Village ecosystems provide most of the world’s food and natural resources, carbon sequestration, water filtration and wildlife habitat, as well as maintaining supplies of food, energy and freshwater products for rural and urban populations. Coastal wetlands also provide storm surge protection [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. However, villages are becoming vulnerable due to various natural and human factors [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ].…”

“…The economic and demographic transition and the increasing marginalization associated with population decline have led to rising unemployment, the emigration of economically active groups and population ageing [ 27 ]. In addition, the coastal countryside is threatened by sea level rise, storm surges and inland flooding [ 19 ]. In order to reduce the vulnerability of the village ecosystem and enhance its anti-interference ability, adaptability and recovery ability, some scholars have introduced resilience into the study of village ecosystems [ 28 , 29 ].…”

Under the background of global environmental change, a huge impact has been made on the village ecosystem, which leads to disorder of structure and function of the village ecosystem. The current management measures of the village have failed in allowing the village to achieve sustainable development. Research on the vulnerability and resilience of the village ecosystem is helpful in regards to the ecological restoration of the village. The research status and progress in regards to the vulnerability and resilience of the village ecosystem are not clear, and the summary of research results and problems is insufficient. Based on 87 related literatures, this paper focuses on the current status and progress of village ecosystem vulnerability and resilience research, and reveals the current research results and shortcomings of village ecosystem vulnerability and resilience. We found that: (1) the research on vulnerability and resilience of the village ecosystem is on the rise; (2) the research mainly focuses on the index system, monitoring and assessment, mechanism research and strategy research. The monitoring and assessment research is the most prominent, which mainly discusses the research methods, the vulnerability and the resilience of the village ecosystem; (3) the study area is mainly concentrated in Asia, North America and Africa. Research institutions are mainly institutions of higher learning and research institutes (centers). Finally, this paper finds that major scientific and technical studies such as the construction of indicator systems and the study of governance strategies in the study of vulnerability and resilience of village ecosystems are lagging behind. In future research, we should deepen the research on the concept and connotation of vulnerability and resilience. We must establish a scientific and reasonable research framework for vulnerability and resilience of the village ecosystem. We should also strengthen and improve the index system of vulnerability and resilience of the village ecosystem. We should strengthen research on the impact mechanisms and governance strategies of vulnerability and resilience, and apply the research on vulnerability and resilience to the planning and governance of the village ecosystem.
