Urban heat is emerging as a major climate risk for cities, yet financing for adaptation remains far below what is needed. Reducing heat exposure will require solutions that can attract and direct capital towards interventions, including nature-based, that deliver measurable resilience benefits. This session will explore how innovative financing approaches can help bridge that gap and create scalable opportunities for investors.
