From risk to action: knowing, planning, acting to build heat-resilient territories

The day's underlying theme will be heat risk and heatwaves: a focus on policies, strategies, and actions to effectively integrate welfare, public health, economic systems, and land-use planning, with the goal of building resilient regions and communities in increasingly hotter urban environments. The event stems from discussions developed in recent months with Fondazione Lombardia per l'Ambiente and Ambiente Italia, thanks to funding from the MASE Experimental Program for Adaptation to Climate Change in Urban Areas. It will be an opportunity to share emerging evidence, discuss governance models for adaptation, and initiate a cross-sector dialogue on impacts and operational priorities.
