The Extreme Heat Management Programs Community advances heat resilience, urban and rural cooling, air quality, public health protection, and biodiversity-conscious planning through advocacy, research, convenings, and data-driven programs using AI, GIS, and geospatial monitoring.
We work with government, researchers, development partners, and frontline communities to strengthen preparedness and coordinated response to extreme heat, while supporting green area protection and OECMs.
Supporting governments with AI-driven climate projections, GIS heat and vegetation monitoring systems, and policy guidance for urban and rural resilience.
Promoting early warning systems, cooling centers, hydration campaigns, and occupational heat-safety standards.
Advancing adoption-ready Heat Action Frameworks, greening regulations, and biodiversity-sensitive planning, including protection of OECMs and community-managed green areas.
Prioritizing rural residents, informal workers, women, children, and the elderly most exposed to heat stress.
Strengthening decision-making through real-time dashboards, remote sensing, predictive analytics, and geospatial monitoring.
Real-world protection for urban, rural, and ecologically sensitive areas.
