Singapore has laid out its inaugural National Adaptation Plan, addressing heat resilience, flood protection, coastal defence, and water and food security. Amongst other key initiatives, a new Heat Resilience Policy Office has been set up to map out the country’s heat resilience efforts. Established by the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE), the office brings together agencies including the Ministries of National Development, Health, Manpower and Social and Family Development to coordinate action, oversee research and represent Singapore internationally.
