Geographies of Heat
As planetary temperatures rise, heat is no longer a passive environmental backdrop but an active agent shaping social, political, and material landscapes.

Presentations conceptualise heat as a dynamic and socially charged agent that reshapes territories, bodies, and ecosystems.
