We are pleased to invite you to our upcoming Virtual Roundtable titled "Heatwave Deaths Are Avoidable." This critical and timely discussion will shed light on the fact that while not all disaster deaths can be prevented, deaths caused by heatwaves certainly can be. Our experts will share knowledge and strategies on how to prevent these tragedies effectively. Register here.
