Bengaluru is experiencing growing climate risks, from heat and flooding to water stress, air pollution and ecological degradation. Understanding where these risks are concentrated, and who is most exposed to it, is critical to effective local action. Data and spatial analysis can help bring this picture into focus.

Introducing Data Lab Connect, an initiative by WRI India to strengthen the evidence base for localised climate action in Bengaluru. Designed around local needs, we seek to help organisations unpack climate-related problems and identify appropriate analytical approaches to strengthen climate resilience. We particularly aim to support work focused on enhancing resilience for vulnerable communities and people.
