The World Health Organization (WHO) has launched the “Beat the Heat” initiative to combat extreme heat health risks in workplaces and major events. This program aims to protect workers, athletes, and attendees from heat-related illnesses exacerbated by climate change. By collaborating with organizations like FIFA, WHO seeks to implement heat-health action plans, early warning systems, and public education campaigns. The initiative emphasizes the importance of preparedness, advocating for measures such as providing shaded areas, ensuring access to hydration, and adjusting work schedules during peak heat periods. By addressing extreme heat health risks proactively, WHO’s initiative strives to build resilience and safeguard health in the face of rising global temperatures.
