Published on 12 March 2025 at 19:34

We are excited to announce the launch of our latest policy brief, Managing Extreme Heat in Urban Areas: Recommendations for a National Heat Risk Strategy (2025).

As extreme heat events become more frequent and severe due to climate change, it is imperative that policymakers, urban planners, and community leaders take proactive measures to protect vulnerable populations and build climate-resilient cities.

Addressing extreme heat is not just an environmental challenge—it is a matter of public health, economic resilience, and social equity. Through this policy brief, we aim to support decision-makers in crafting effective policies that safeguard communities from the growing risks of extreme heat.
