Display map on Google MapsThis year’s “Beat the Heat” conference brings together practitioners, policymakers, and researchers to jointly tackle the challenges posed by urban heat and explore pathways towards climate-resilient cities. We aim to offer a platform for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and networking to strengthen the exchange among the Swiss research, services, and implementation community.
By putting a special focus on “societal engagement and outreach”, the conference offers an opportunity to present and discuss insights from various disciplines, initiatives, and projects concerned with the interactions between cities, climate change, and society.
