This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the dynamic relationship between environmental factors and public health, providing both theoretical insights and practical solutions. As environmental challenges such as climate change, pollution, and natural disasters increasingly threaten global public health, this book integrates foundational theories with empirical evidence to address these pressing issues. It covers a wide range of topics including the theoretical and methodological foundations for understanding the nexus between environment and public health, exploring historical perspectives and research directions. The book examines the health impacts of environmental hazards and disasters, focusing on vulnerable regions and populations with highlighting climate change associated public health challenges. Furthermore, the book shifts to the environmental pollution and public health challenges, offering sustainable solutions to mitigate environmental pollutions. The book also delves into the intersection of climate extremes, food security, and nutrition, focusing on how vulnerable countries can build resilient food systems to combat food insecurity and malnutrition. It emphasizes the role of cutting-edge technologies like geospatial tools, artificial intelligence, machine learning (ML) and advanced environment and public health data cloud to make sustainable solutions. By integrating diverse regional perspectives, the book presents actionable strategies for building resilient, sustainable environment and public health. Designed for researchers, policymakers, and environmental health practitioners, this book serves as an essential guide for understanding the profound global environmental challenges and public health burdens, learning the advance tools and techniques to delineate such issues and resilient strategies

The book offers a comprehensive view to understanding the complex and multifaceted world of women's health in South Asia, aligning closely with Sustainable Development Goals-3 (SDGs-3) on “good health and well-being”. It examines the critical aspects, such as maternal and newborn health, healthcare choice and utilization. It includes perspectives on environmental, socio-cultural, and individual-level behavioral aspects of women's health outcomes. Furthermore, it highlights present-day women’s health issues with the light of COVID-19 pandemics, refugeehood and mind-psychiatric epidemics. It contextualizes the women’s health rights and development landscape with evaluating existing policies, programs, and potential gaps affecting women's health and well-being. Employing advanced geospatial techniques, including spatial modelling and quantitative approaches, the book offers multidimensional insights into women's health, shaping dialogue around health programs and policies. It is a rich source for academics, researchers, graduate students and health professionals in the fields of women’s health development.
