🔥 Heatwaves are becoming deadlier—but cities like Amadora are fighting back.
In 2022 alone, Portugal lost over 2,000 lives to extreme heat. In response, Amadora, a UNDRR Making Cities Resilient Resilience Hub, has taken bold steps to protect its people. 🌡️🌳
From early warning systems and real-time alerts to green infrastructure and strong coordination with emergency services, Amadora is building a city that’s ready for rising temperatures. Most importantly, they’re working directly with communities, ensuring that people feel informed, included, and safe.
This is what climate resilience in action looks like.
