About

Expo City Dubai Foundation is calling on social enterprises and innovators from around the world to tackle one of the most urgent climate challenges: Extreme Heat in Humanitarian and Emergency Settings.

Extreme heat is becoming a major driver of humanitarian crises, exacerbating droughts, displacement, and health risks for vulnerable communities.

We are offering grants of up to USD 100,000 to support innovative, enterprise-led solutions that address both the root causes and direct impacts of extreme heat, from cooling shelters and off-grid energy to health tech, water, and food resilience.

If you’re a social enterprise based in or operating across the Global South, this is your chance to scale impact globally.
