A new study published in Nature Sustainability examines the concept of Systemic Cooling Poverty (SCP) in the Global South. This research provides a comprehensive assessment of how various factors contribute to heat vulnerability.

The study, titled 'A multidimensional assessment of Systemic Cooling Poverty in the Global South,' emphasizes that temperature alone does not capture the full extent of heat-related challenges faced by communities.

By mapping these complexities, the research aims to inform better strategies for addressing the needs of vulnerable populations in regions most affected by heat stress.
