Maldives is located south of India, made up of a collection of islands. The capital of Maldives, Male, has been experiencing an increase of foreigners migrating to the islands of Maldives. This movement in a small city can cause rapid spread of diseases. The location of Male also poses environmental threats, such as rising sea levels, earthquakes, tsunamis, and the effect of climate change. 

 

To combat rapid migration and potential environmental dangers, a healthcare clinic and research facility is being built in the capital of Maldives, Male. This clinic will be a haven for supporting locals, as well as, being in the forefront of climate change research and its affect on the world.
