Spring is here and for many, this means allergy season! Due to the warming climate, the flowering season of allergic trees is starting earlier. For people with pollen allergy this means earlier start and longer duration of allergic symptoms. Read about it in our report: thelancet.com/journals/lan...

CATALYSE Fieldwork to Tackle Heat Stress and Healthcare Barriers for Migrant Workers - Catalyse %
Worldwide, an estimated 1 in 4 adults work outdoors. Outdoor workers face an increased risk of occupational heat stress due to environmental exposures, including temperature, humidity, direct sun exposure, and heavy physical work. Between 800,000 to 1 million seasonal outdoor workers are hired in Europe each year, mainly in the agriculture sector, increasing
