Günes Reubens, Dilek

Dilek Güneş Reubens is a Research Intern at UNU-CRIS, where she will contribute to the Nature, Climate, and Health Cluster under the supervision of Nidhi Nagabhatla and Charlotte Scheerens. She recently completed a Master’s degree in Conflict and Development Studies at Ghent University, specializing in climate policy and migration studies.

During her internship, made possible through the support of the Flanders Trainee Programme, Dilek will focus on exploring the connections between climate change and health outcomes, particularly in migration contexts. She will conduct research to strengthen the evidence base on the climate-health nexus, analyzing direct and indirect health impacts of climate change.

Additionally, Dilek will support the ClimaMigHealth network activities and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to develop integrated solutions that bridge climate science, migration studies, and public health.
