Nepal is one of the climate change prone countries in the world. Geophysical and socioeconomic condition of
country have predetermined vulnerability of the country to drought, earthquake, epidemic, fire, flood, forest fire, land
slide and other climate related events affecting human and animal health, injuries, and quality of life. In light of such
a situation we aimed to review knowledge related to potential health impacts of climate change on population of
Nepal. Literature search using major public health, environmental and social databases as well as international
reports was completed the get an overview of existing knowledge. There is a little published knowledge related to
potential health impacts of climate change on population of Nepal. However, the knowledge of relationship between
climate change and health and knowledge of environment allow discussing main routes of potential impact as well
as health effects is a crucial issue to explore. More direct, population based research would be necessary to provide
sound knowledge for emergency planning and mitigation measures.
