When extreme weather strikes Hong Kong — a scorching heatwave, a raging typhoon, or a torrential rainstorm — a weather warning goes up. But for the thousands of homeless people sleeping across Sham Shui Po, Yau Ma Tei, Kwun Tong, Tuen Mun, and beyond, a warning is not enough. Someone still needs to decide: Who goes out tonight? Which district is most at risk? What should they bring, and when?

Today, that decision falls entirely on frontline NGO workers — manually checking the HKO website, estimating risk by instinct, writing advisories in English, and coordinating over messaging apps. It is based on past experiences and wisdom to determine when intervention and outreaching is needed.

ClimateShield changes that.

ClimateShield is an AI-powered intelligence platform that transforms real-time weather data from the Hong Kong Observatory into precise, district-specific outreach recommendations — directly to frontline teams, up to 14 days before a crisis unfolds.

Our AI agent analyses the latest weather readings alongside historical climate trends, turning raw meteorological data into data-driven decisions that answer three critical questions with evidence, not intuition: the right person, the right location, the right moment. Risk scores, trend patterns, and intervention strategies are all computed, compared, and cited — so every recommendation is traceable back to real data.

Every recommendation is held in a human-reviewed approval queue. No alert reaches a frontline worker without a caseworker’s sign-off, ensuring AI supports human judgment, never replaces it. ClimateShield does not just monitor the weather. It stands between Hong Kong’s most vulnerable people and the next climate emergency — so no one is left without protection.
