Summary

The PICCTURE trial is a cluster randomized controlled study that will be conducted in District Astore, 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.
