HeatAware SG
HeatAware SG is a 3-year community-focused initiative designed to move from climate awareness to climate readiness.
It targets elderly HDB residents above 50 years old through 3 phases.
Key Deliverables
- HeatAware SG Pilot: Measure indoor heat exposure and heat-health awareness among vulnerable older adults to establish the need for a targeted warning system.
- Climate-Sense Hackathon: Co-design affordable, practical cooling solutions with at-risk communities through hands-on prototyping workshops.
- ACHAS (AI-Guided System): Deploy an AI-powered system using sensors and digital building models to deliver personalised cooling strategies and strengthen community support networks.
Impact: Digital referrals + CC/AAC/door-to-door recruitment; 20-min surveys; deploy 50 IoT sensors for alerts/advice; analyse for report.
