Abstract
This guide is designed primarily for staff within city governments who develop and implement adaptation and response strategies to reduce the impacts of extreme heat. This is a practical guide to understand the key components of an effective public communication plan: access, relevance, understanding and action. A set of recommended actions is included in each section. This guide can also be used by other organisations and institutions who work on reducing heat impacts on the public, involving large-scale communication.
