Abstract

Climate change and HIV/AIDS represent two interconnected global challenges with profound implications for human
health and well-being. While the impacts of climate change on physical health and infectious diseases are increasingly
recognized, the intersection between climate change and HIV transmission remains understudied. This paper explores
the emerging threats posed by climate change to HIV transmission dynamics, highlighting the complex interactions
between environmental factors, social determinants, and health outcomes. The paper examined the pathways through
which climate change may exacerbate vulnerabilities to HIV infection, including disruptions to healthcare systems,
population displacement, and changes in behavior and migration patterns. Furthermore, the papers emphasize the
importance of adaptive strategies and interdisciplinary collaborations in addressing the intersecting challenges of
climate change and HIV transmission. By understanding and mitigating these risks, we can work towards building
resilient communities and protecting the health of vulnerable populations in the face of climate change and infectious
diseases.
