AFIN Group, in collaboration with the Ajuntament de Barcelona, Hospital Sant Pau, Hospital Sant Joan de Déu, and Hospital del Mar, is conducting the study Viure l’embaràs a Barcelona: dones i persones gestants davant l’emergència climàtica. This research analyzes the experiences of pregnant individuals in relation to the effects of climate change and pollution on their health, reproductive decisions, and future perspectives.
In the first phase, in-depth interviews were conducted with participants from different districts of Barcelona. Currently, the study has entered its second phase, consisting of a survey aimed at those who have experienced pregnancy and/or breastfeeding in the city from 2022 to the present. This stage seeks to expand participation and include a greater diversity of experiences.
Those who wish to collaborate can complete the survey at the following link: https://taraceas.limesurvey.net/896731?lang=es . Your participation will contribute to a better understanding of the effects of the climate emergency on perinatal health.
The project results are expected to be shared through the AFIN Group’s website, regular publications, and social media over the next year. Those interested in learning about the emerging results of this project can follow the group’s updates or get in touch via email: c.afin@uab.cat.
