    Beating the heat is now part of hosting

    Canada and Morocco, both World Cup hosts, are collaborating with the World Health Organization (WHO) on a 'Beat the Heat' initiative to address extreme weather risks at sporting events. The WHO emphasizes tailored heat health action plans for each host city, with Canada co-hosting in 2026 and Morocco in 2030. Despite the U.S. withdrawing from the WHO in 2023, the U.S., Canada, and Mexico continue World Cup preparations through a WHO-coordinated health security working group.
