Bhopal, May 18 -- Phase one of a stakeholder workshop, coordinated by the Department of Architecture at the Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, concluded on Saturday after studying the impact of extreme heat on the poorest in the city.
Spread across three seasons, the workshop aims to result in the preparation of a location-specific Climate Action Plan for the city this winter.
Held from 13-17 May, the first phase of the 10-day Extreme Climate Workshop engaged low-income communities to map how rising temperatures affect health, work, housing, and daily life.
Students and researchers used participatory GIS tools, surveys and group dialogues to document lived experiences in informal settlements and EWS housing across Bhopal.
