We're proud to share that the Greater Sydney Heat Taskforce has been featured in the United Nations Environment Programme's (UNEP) Beat the Heat: 50@50 initiative — a global platform showcasing cities and regions taking action to build resilience to extreme heat.

Established and facilitated by Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (WSROC) in partnership with Resilient Sydney, the Taskforce brings together councils, government agencies, community representatives, researchers and industry partners to drive collaborative action and implement the Heat Smart City Plan.

Sydney's inclusion in the initiative reflects the strength of this collective effort. It's also great to see Blacktown City Council highlighted for its leadership in heat resilience.

We also acknowledge the leadership of Kerry Robinson OAM, CEO of Blacktown City Council and Co-Chair of the Greater Sydney Heat Taskforce.

Thank you to all Taskforce members and partners helping position Greater Sydney as a leader in climate adaptation and resilience.
