+  <description><![CDATA[ One barrier to climate change and health research is that many surveys—including the <a href="https://dhsprogram.com/">The Demographic and Health Surveys Program (DHS)</a>—do not collect detailed information on local environmental conditions in survey areas. Fortunately, organizations like <a href="https://www.idhsdata.org/idhs/">IPUMS DHS</a> are now taking steps to use DHS enumeration cluster coordinates to link a limited set of climate variables—including monthly and long-term average precipitation—to individual and household records within the DHS.<span class="citation" data-cites="boyle_contextual_2020"><sup>1</sup></span> ]]></description>
