Navigating Climate Anxiety in Karachi’s Higher Education Institutes
\nIt investigates the mental health impacts of climate change exposure among undergraduate students in Karachi, Pakistan. Using a mixed-methods approach with 34 survey respondents and two interviews, the research explores correlations between media exposure to climate crises and anxiety levels. Key findings reveal a positive link, with news media having the strongest association. Female students reported higher anxiety than males. The study highlights the need for universities to implement coping strategies, such as problem-focused (activism) and meaning-focused (hope-building) approaches, to mitigate climate anxiety. Recommendations include educational interventions and fostering collective efficacy to empower students. Limitations include a small, non-representative sample, suggesting broader future research. The project underscores the urgency of addressing climate anxiety in youth through institutional support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
