Extreme Heat Action Profiles

Extreme heat is recognized as a critical challenge across all sectors. United Nations and international organizations are responding to Member needs with dedicated strategies, resources, and governance mechanisms that reflect the growing urgency to address heat. To better understand and elevate these efforts, we conducted a mapping exercise to showcase key findings and action on heat across the United Nations and international organizations. This process resulted in the development of sixteen Heat Action Profiles, each highlighting the specific initiatives, priorities, and contributions of profiled organizations.
