About this trial
The PICCTURE trial is a cluster randomized controlled study which will be conducted in District Badin, Pakistan, to evaluate the effectiveness of community-based interventions in improving resilience to climate-related hazards. The study compares community-led adaptation and resilience strategies and community interventions integrated with primary healthcare engagement against a control group. The objective is to determine whether these approaches improve household-level resilience, adaptive capacity, and health-related outcomes in a coastal, climate-vulnerable population.
