AIDMI is organising the Roundtable on Accelerating Extreme Heat Responses: Key Perspectives from India, Wednesday, September 11, 2024, 04:00 pm to 05:30 pm (IST). The rate at which heat is becoming extreme is faster than the rate at which the responses are being taken in India. Therefore, there is an urgent need to accelerate a wide range of responses. Join the roundtable to understand why the acceleration and key responses in India matter to India and the world. This discussion is guided by the special issue of Southasiadisasters.net produced by the panel members.
