Countries: World, United Republic of Tanzania Source: International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies At a school on the Unguja Island, part of the Tanzanian archipelago known as Zanzibar, volunteers from the Tanzania Red Cross Society explain to a classroom full of students how to protect themselves from the dangers of extreme heat. The volunteersโ efforts were part of a larger heatwave awareness campaign in early 2026, led by the Tanzanian Red Cross, that has reached more than 4,000 people in schools, madrasas, markets, and communities around the island. This is just one of many ways Red Cross and Red Crescent National Societies around the world regularly work to protect people from the dangers of extreme heat โ including the very particular dangers of indoor heat. Why focus on indoor heat? When thinking about or preparing for heatwaves, people often think of blistering days outside in the hot sun. But people living or working indoors, in uncooled or poorly ventilated spaces, can sometimes be at even greater risk of heat stroke, dehydration and other heat-related risks. Those most susceptible to rising body temperatures โ children and the elderly โ are particularly vulnerable and, often, they must spend long periods of the day inside. These are some of the reasons Heat Action Day 2026 focuses on โindoor heatโ โ putting the spotlight on the health risks people face inside their homes, schools, workplaces, care facilities, transport hubs, prisons and even public vechiles such as busses and taxis. (Learn more about how to #BeatTheHeat and about how to take part in Heat Action Day 2026.) This threat is nothing new to Red Cross and Red Crescent volunteers who often go door-to-door during heatwaves, visiting people who live in densely populated urban neighborhoods, work in poorly insulated industrial areas, or live in camps for people displaced by emergencies. Very often, such facilities or temporary shelters lack insulation or access to energy or water sources that can help keep people cool. Building materials, design characteristics, and urban heat island all play a role in determining indoor temperatures. Rising risks Without respite and access to cooling, high day- and night-time indoor temperatures pose significant health risks, particularly for older people and those with pre-existing medical conditions. Beyond heat stroke, high temperatures can have a wide range of health effects. According to a 2020 study, for example, high indoor temperatures affect multiple aspects of human health, with the strongest evidence for respiratory health, diabetes management and core schizophrenia and dementia symptoms, according to one 2020 study. Other studies show that prolonged exposure to high indoor temperatures is also responsible for sleep disturbances, cognitive impairment of workers, reduced learning uptake in students, and domestic violence. More research needs to be done, however, so policy makers, urban planners and architects can better understand how to reduce extreme urban heat. At the same time, building standards and indoor heat policies need urgent updates. In many places, indoor heat standards do not exist, or they overlook vulnerable populations and climate projections. The good news is that it is possible to improve the way buildings and public spaces are designed and constructed to better protect people living and working indoors. Meanwhile, more governments, agencies and communities are taking action. For example: painting roofs white, keeping windows covered during the hottest times of day, and using passive cooling at night when temperatures outside cool down. There are also many low-cost actions one can take to cool the body: a cool shower, submerging feet in cool water, self-dousing with water, using an evaporative cooler or misting fan, ingesting cold water, wearing clothing made from natural fibres, and sleeping with a wet sheet, among other measures. As part of its 2026 Heat Action Day activation, the IFRC also encourages people to proactively reach out to support the elderly and chronically ill during times of extreme heat, especially those with limited mobility who may need help getting to a cooler space. How can you take part in Heat Action Day? As the organization that created Heat Action Day, the IFRC each year encourages more and more activities to raise awareness and encourage people to take concrete action to prevent heat related illness and death. Whether you're sharing life-saving tips on social media or organizing a community event, there are many ways to get involved and help #BeatTheHeat.

SUMMARY OF THE SIMPLIFIED EARLY ACTION PROTOCOL The IFRC Disaster Response Emergency Fund (DREF) has allocated CHF 122,718for the implementation anticipatory actions to reduce and mitigate the impact of (Rainfall flooding) in (Chad). This simplified Early Action Protocol includes an allocation of CHF 73,734 to preposition stock and undertake annual readiness activities in order to implement early actions, if and when the trigger is reached. The early actions to be conducted have been pre-agreed with the National Society and are described in the simplified Early Action Protocol. This report summarizes the annual readiness and preposition activities done in the reporting period. Chad is a country highly exposed to the effects of climate change, as confirmed by the analyses of the Climate Change Vulnerability Index (CCVI). In addition, an assessment conducted by Verisk Maplecroft, a global risk monitoring and advisory organization, also ranks Chad among the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change. The increasing frequency of extreme weather events such as floods, droughts, heatwaves and high winds is a clear manifestation of climate change, with significant humanitarian consequences for the population. Given this increased vulnerability, lack of resources and challenges related to the humanitarian response, actors in the sector are mobilizing to develop anticipatory actions to better deal with future crises. It is in this context that the Red Cross Society of Chad (CRT), in partnership with its partners, has obtained technical and financial validation for the Simplified Early Action Protocol (sEAP) for rainwater floods. This protocol aims to implement anticipatory activities to mitigate the impacts of flooding in six provinces: Mayo Kebbi East, Mandoul, Tandjilรฉ, Logone Oriental, Moyen Chari and Salamat. Chad's sEAP was approved on 20/08/2024. Following this, the Red Cross Society of Chad (CRT) coordinated closely with the National Meteorological Services to monitor triggers, using seasonal rainfall data. The National Meteorological Agency of Chad (ANAM) has shared the 2025 seasonal forecast data with the Disaster Management Department of the Red Cross of Chad. According to these forecasts, excess rainfall accumulations are expected in both the Sudanian and Sahelian areas of the country, with an increased risk of flooding from July to September. This situation triggered the preparation activities, including the holding of information meetings with all stakeholders, the validation of target areas at the provincial level, the pre-positioning of stocks as well as the training of intervention teams. However, during the rainy season, the Chad Red Cross (CRT) continued to monitor triggers and thresholds in close coordination with ANAM. Finally, the weekly forecasts of the Extreme Prediction Index (EFI) remained below the threshold for the activation of the simplified sEAP, which resulted in the non-activation of the anticipated actions. During the reporting period, the Chad Red Cross Society (CRT) made significant progress in strengthening its preparedness for the implementation of the anticipated actions. To support this effort, the CRT organized meetings in each target province with local administrative authorities, provincial action committees (PCAs), community members, and Red Cross staff and volunteers. These meetings provided an opportunity to present the project to stakeholders and identify areas at risk of flooding at the provincial level. Fortunately, all of the targeted provinces already had contingency plans in place that included these flood zones. In addition, the sEAP was presented to local authorities and CPA members to ensure their ownership and active involvement in the implementation of the anticipated actions. The CRT also organized two-day training sessions in each province, reaching a total of 70 Chadian Red Cross staff and volunteers. These trainings focused on beneficiary targeting techniques, distribution procedures, as well as community awareness sessions on early warning, anticipatory actions and hygiene promotion. These training Hydrographic Map of Chad sessions were held in the provinces of Mayo Kebbi East, Mandoul, Tandjilรฉ, Logone Oriental, Moyen Chari and Salamat, with 70 participants, including 19 women and 51 men who successfully completed the training. At the end of the training, these trained people are ready and able to intervene when the early actions are activated. An important milestone was also reached with the signing of an agreement (Accord) between the CRT and ANAM, thus strengthening their partnership and collaboration in data sharing and monitoring of triggers under the sEAP. The CRT has also acquired and pre-positioned sanitation equipment, including: 350 wheelbarrows, 700 rakes, 700 shovels, 700 pickaxes, 20,000 empty 100 kg bags, as well as 350 Essential Household Goods (AME) kits including 350 3-seater mats, 350 mosquito nets, 350 blankets, 350 20-liter jerry cans, 350 plastic cups, 350 15-liter buckets and 700 liters of bleach. Coordination through regular meetings between the CRT, the IFRC, the French Red Cross (FRC), UN agencies and government technical services demonstrates a strong commitment to partnership and effective anticipatory action. These meetings provide valuable platforms to address emerging challenges, review ongoing initiatives, and align strategies to provide timely and effective responses in high-risk areas.

Overview: May 2026 is expected to conclude with steadily declining rainfall and elevated temperatures, particularly across desert and coastal areas. Key Concerns: Decreasing rainfall and flood recession: During the last dekad of May 2026, rainfall is expected to decline gradually to very low levels, with only occasional residual showers over the central highlands, particularly in Dhamar and Ibb governorates. Bi-weekly forecasts from the International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) indicate a moderate (40%) probability of below-average rainfall along the western slopes of the highlands. Soaring temperatures: Above-average temperatures are forecast across most governorates during the third dekad of May 2026, with the strongest anomalies over the coastal plainsโincluding Tihama, Aden, and the Hadhramaut coastโand inland desert areas such as Al Jawf, Marib, and the Hadhramaut interior, increasing the likelihood of heatwaves (Fig. 1). Maximum temperatures are expected to reach 35โ42ยฐC in coastal and desert areas, while the central highlandsโincluding Sanaโa, Dhamar, Ibb, and Taizz governorates โare likely to see temperatures of 25โ31ยฐC. Implications on Agricultural Livelihoods Rainfed agriculture: Conditions are likely to remain generally favorable for early-stage sorghum and millet, though localized rainfall variability may delay planting and other field activities in some areas. Irrigated agriculture: Higher temperatures and increased evapotranspiration are expected to raise irrigation demand, with heightened water-stress risks in already water-scarce basins. Livestock and pastoral systems: Heat-stress risk is expected to increase in desert rangelands, coastal areas, and lowlands. Meanwhile, pasture conditions may improve slightly in parts of the central highlands following convective rainfall. Adaptation and Coping Strategies: The following are key measures that FAO and partners can take to mitigate the expected meteorological impacts during the last dekad of May 2026: Early Warning Systems: Strengthen coordination among meteorological, agricultural, and disaster-management institutions to issue regular agrometeorological advisories at governorate and district levels. Promote the use of localized weather and seasonal forecasts to inform planting decisions, irrigation scheduling, and livestock mobility planning. Crop farming Promote drought- and heat-tolerant varieties, particularly for sorghum, millet, legumes, and vegetables. Scale up soil conservation and agroforestry practices to reduce erosion and improve resilience to heavy rainfall and heat stress. Encourage crop and livelihood diversification to reduce reliance on a single season or commodity. Livestock management Ensure adequate livestock water supply through water storage, rehabilitation of water points, and targeted water trucking where needed. Reduce heat stress by providing shade and limiting livestock movement during peak daytime temperatures. Support fodder reserves and supplementary feeding in anticipation of pasture deterioration in lowland and drought-prone areas.
