Open Forum: Pack Up and Go – Climate Migration

Overview Speakers

Over 200 million people face forced migration within their countries by 2050 due to sea-level rise, extreme weather events, drought and water scarcity. Climate migration can destabilize societies and economies, making them vulnerable to other long-term threats.

How can we address climate migration and reduce the risks for those displaced by the nature and climate crisis?
