SUMMARY:Too Hot to Work: Financial Inclusion\, Productivity and Wellbeing
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening discussion on how rising heat risk is affecting financial inclusion\, productivity\, and wellbeing in a warming world. \nOrganised by the Financial Inclusion Forum and hosted by Clyde & Co as part of London Climate Action Week\, this event will explore how extreme heat is becoming an increasingly important challenge for businesses\, economies\, and vulnerable communities. \nUnlike floods or storms\, heat stress is often overlooked despite its significant impacts.

For lower-income and financially excluded communities\, periods of extreme heat can also contribute to income loss\, financial stress\, and greater vulnerability. \nBringing together speakers from law\, finance\, insurance\, development\, engineering\, and health\, the discussion will explore how organisations can respond to rising heat risk and support resilience in a changing climate. \nWhat to Expect: \n\nDiscussion on how extreme heat affects businesses\, communities\, and financial resilience\nPerspectives from experts across law\, finance\, insurance\, development\, engineering\, and health\nTwo panel discussions examining heat risk and practical responses\nNetworking opportunity following the event\n\nWhy Attend: \n\nLearn why heat is becoming an important financial inclusion and resilience issue\nHear from organisations working on climate risk\, insurance\, and community resilience\nConnect with professionals across finance\, policy\, development\, and social impact\n\nPanel 1: When Heat Becomes a Business and Liability Risk \nPanel 2: Financing Human Resilience in a Hotter World \nGet your FREE ticket here: https://shorturl.at/i4rCD \n  \n#FinancialInclusion #ClimateResilience #ClimateRisk #FinancialResilience #EconomicInclusion #LondonClimateActionWeek
