Humanitarian Justice in a Warming World: Rethinking Equity, Protection, and Response to Extreme Heat

This roundtable builds on HOISA’s ongoing work synthesising insights from past engagements, including virtual roundtables, field consultations, and practitioner reflections across India and South Asia . It explores how extreme heat is increasingly revealing issues of inequality, exclusion, and uneven access to protection—particularly for small businesses, women, migrants, and urban poor communities. The session is designed as a reflective and evidence-driven conversation to validate emerging findings, identify gaps, and connect lived experiences with humanitarian policy and practice. Rather than a conventional webinar, it aims to deepen collective understanding and contribute to shaping a longer-term agenda on humanitarian justice in the region.
