Sarah Pelull works as project and network coordinator in the HEATCOM project, which focuses on how people behave in heat situations, what factors influence their protective behavior and how interventions can contribute to a health-promoting adaptation.
She is also active in the Institute for Planetary Health Behaviour's Science2Society activities, where she works with society, the media and policymakers to think about and plan for health promotion and climate change from a human perspective. The aim is to strengthen the value of science as a basis for political and social decision-making and to promote exchange processes between journalists, politicians, citizens and scientists.
Sarah Pelull also coordinates the Behavioural Science Connect network, which brings together scientists from across disciplines to promote the use of social and behavioural science in policy-making.
