‘Rio 60ºC – Climate Resilience and Extreme Events in the Marvelous City’ aims to mitigate the impacts of extreme weather events, especially storms, in Rio de Janeiro. In April 2024, Professor Mariza Ferro from UFF and journalist Thiago Medaglia from Ambiental Media will organize a two-day event at UFF.

The seminar will bring together experts from various fields to discuss climate resilience actions for vulnerable communities in the metropolitan region. Students, journalists, and community leaders will participate in a hackathon to develop solutions. This inaugural event aims to provide insights and gather partners for future initiatives, including a multimedia platform on climate resilience.
