Case study: Overheating risk, housing resilience and climate adaptation
Why overheating is such a significant health risk, particularly in urban and higher-density housing
The tension between energy efficiency, airtightness, retrofit programmes and unintended overheating consequences in existing homes
Why housing providers need to take a preventative, whole-system approach to climate resilience
What the sector can learn from emerging research, policy development and international best practice as climate-related hazards become a growing operational and asset management challenge for social housing providers
