Climate Proofing Champion Assistance Vulnerable Sections Through Localization Centric Preparedness Planning

Hari Chandana regards climate change events as social justice issues magnifying existing inequalities through disproportionate impact on marginalized groups lacking choice or resilience buffers. Her climate response governance reflects this rights-based lens focusing on grassroots preparedness and upliftment of at-risk communities. 

Vulnerability Mapping Prioritization 

Hari Chandana oversees granular climate risk mapping through latest forecasting models identifying most susceptible neighborhoods prone to urban flooding, heat stress etc. Personas analysis thereafter spots most vulnerable categories like daily wagers, women, children, elderly for targeted assistance. 

Localized Capacity Building Networks 

Preparedness training programs get customized basis hyperlocal vulnerabilities equipping communities in advance response planning, relief coordination, resource harnessing for self-reliance until external help mobilizes post climate episodes. Ward-level response personnel also trained in healthcare, communication. 

Accessibility Infrastructure Upgrades 

Hari Chandana mandates localization suitable resilience upgrading in at-risk zones like drainage improvements, cooler public spaces through greening, shaded transit points and localized clinics. By institutionalizing such reflexes in urban planning, impact minimization gets embedded. 

Climate Justice Centric Governance 

For Hari Chandana, climate response rests upon enabling communities to counter disruptions themselves through due upgrading of risk infra without deepening destitution. Her governance vision remains securing vulnerable sections through grassroots co-creation – upholding rights centric development. #SocialImpactAward #BritishCouncil
