N2  - This thesis looks into the relationship between proximity to heat stress exposure and its effect on citizens? awareness, knowledge, and resources on engagement in climate adaptation activities in the city of Groningen. Using a cross-sectional design and online surveys, data was collected from a sample of 62 residents. The findings indicate that residents with higher awareness, knowledge, and access to resources are more likely to be exposed to heat stress. Moreover, citizens with greater awareness and resource access show higher levels of engagement in climate-adaptive behaviors. These insights highlight the importance of addressing heat stress exposure and promoting awareness and resource accessibility to create more climate-resilient cities. Future research should explore the effectiveness of interventions aimed at increasing awareness, knowledge, and resources.
