The EXHAUSTION project is inviting you to a webinar with our researchers and relevant stakeholders on the topic.

Wednesday 31 January, 13:00-14:30 CET

Register here for the zoom webinar.

During the webinar we want to explore the following questions:

• How can heat protection and reduction of air pollution (including from wildfires) be  included in heat health action planning

• What needs to be considered when adapting heat health action planning to local contexts (e.g. heat health interaction, demography, social inequality, topography & city-planning)?

• Which stakeholders and sectors should be involved?

• What are effective measures for developing a climate-resilient low-emission city and how can these be integrated into a regional or local heat-health action plan?

Speakers:

• Kristin Aunan, CICERO Center for International Climate Research

• Antonio Gasparrini, The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine

• Francesca De' Donato, Lazio Regional Health Service in Rome, Italy:
  Heat health action planning in Europe - current evidence and gaps
