🌡️ It’s not just the air temperature – it’s what your body actually feels.
Visitors at the 2025 Global Platform on Disaster Risk Reduction got to see first hand how the host country, Switzerland, is tackling climate risks with innovation. Professor Reto Camponovo and his team at the Geneva Institute of Technology, Architecture and Landscape (HEPIA) demonstrated their fully mobile microclimate meter that measures much more than just temperature – capturing the full thermal experience of urban heat.
📊 Better data supports smarter cooling strategies, tailored to how people actually experience heat.
💡Smarter heat data will allow urban planners to future proof cities in the face of accelerating extreme heat – which often hits hardest in densely populated areas.
🇨🇭 This is Swiss innovation in action: science serving resilience and humanity.
