Happy International Women's Day! 💜
Today for #WomenInUrbanAIR, we spotlight Cristina Carnerero from BSC. Her work on atmospheric modelling proves that urban resilience only works if it's inclusive. 🏙️💨

🌡️ How hot is "too hot" for you?
#UrbanAIR & @tudelft.nl are launching a major survey to learn how people in different cities perceive heat.
❌ It’s not just for scientists. ✅ It’s for everyone who lives, works, or breathes in a city.

#UrbanPlanning #ClimateAdaptation (3/3)
🌍 Study 1: Mapping lived experience through cross-city #surveys. 💡 Study 2: Participatory workshops using #MCDA to weigh trade-offs like equity or effectiveness vs. cost.
We're building digital twins that reflect human reality, not just sensors. (2/3)
🧠 What counts as "extreme" heat? Is it a policy threshold, or the moment a resident can't breathe safely?
At UrbanAIR WP5, we’re bridging the gap between hazard simulation and lived experience in Barcelona & Antwerp. 🧵 (1/3)

A festive seasonal graphic for the UrbanAIR project. The image features three minimalist, hand-drawn pine trees in light blue and white on a textured white background. Large, elegant script in the center reads 'Happy Holidays'. At the bottom, a message reads: 'As we work toward healthier urban spaces, may this season bring you peace, joy and fresh perspectives.' The UrbanAIR logo is positioned at the very bottom.
Happy Holidays from #UrbanAIR! 🎄🏙️
Wishing our #UrbanAIRteam & supporters a joyful season! As we head into 2026, we remain committed to our mission of building healthier, more resilient cities through digital twin technology.
Thank you for a great year of collaboration! ✨

A wide group photograph of approximately 60 international researchers and partners from the UrbanAIR consortium. They are gathered outside a modern, bright innovation space at Scale Space, White City, London. The group includes a diverse range of scientists, running together to the photographer, to mark the next steps of the General Assembly hosted by Imperial College London. Most are smiling as they run, and the background shows one of the Imperial College London buildings with glass walls and contemporary design.
Building Resilient Cities 🌍🏙️
The momentum is high after the #UrbanAIR General Assembly in London! Together with @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social @tudelfteemcs.bsky.social @bsc-cns.bsky.social, @vito-research.bsky.social @knmi.nl we refined our 2026 roadmap!

Today is the International Day of Persons w/ Disabilities.
Real barriers remain: poverty, limited access to decent work and gaps in autonomy & protection.
Inclusive cities require accessible design, better climate data and community input.
We stand with those driving equal participation.
