The Global Heat Health Information Network (GHHIN) is preparing to launch a call for expressions of interest to identify a lead institution to serve as host for a new a regional  Heat Health Hub in South Asia.

This hub will play a vital role in advancing science-informed policy, fostering regional collaboration, and championing heat resilience across the region. We are looking for a dynamic institution with the capacity and vision to convene diverse actors, promote regional leadership, and become a trusted voice on heat and health.

Funding will be available to support a wide range of impactful activities, including:

• Convening regional actors to develop a shared strategy and priorities
• Building strategic partnerships and driving public awareness
• Establishing a regional leadership committee to guide the agenda and enhance legitimacy
• Strengthening capacity and learning across countries
• Promoting national and regional science-to-policy initiatives
• Organizing regional coordination workshops before and after heat seasons
• Hosting a Regional Heat Health Forum

While the final details of the official are being finalized, we encourage interested institutions across South Asia to stay tuned—the formal call for expressions of interest will be launched in the coming weeks.

This is a unique opportunity to take a leading role in shaping the region’s response to the growing challenge of extreme heat.
