Heat Stress Compendium on Heat Wave Incidences and Action Initiatives
2020
The study takes into account the health conditions, economic factors, and living conditions of women and how the heat impacts them. It will help in understanding the link between climate change and gender and how it affects everyone differently owing to the vulnerabilities and inequalities existing in society. It also enabled the understanding of what initiatives are expected and needed to be taken by the government regarding the problems faced due to heat stress. The results would help in evolving policy lessons for a gender-sensitive heat stress action plan for cities.
