Abstract

YouthMappers help discover hidden vulnerabilities to extreme heat in the face of a changing climate by mapping health outcomes compared to energy assistance. What emerged is a pattern of disproportionate deaths by housing type, necessitating innovations in tagging unique mobile home attributes in OpenStreetMap (OSM). The resulting community engagement generated solutions that stakeholders and residents of mobile homes can implement for greater resilience, and a model for connecting SDG 13 (Sustainable Development Goals) for climate action to SDG 3 good health and well-being by looking at the homes where people live.
