Climate change isn’t just about rising temperatures – it’s a migration crisis that affects millions worldwide. 
From droughts to floods, people are being forced to leave their homes in search of safety and stability.
Here are the facts you need to know:
Climate Migration is on the Rise: Extreme weather events are causing massive displacement. In 2023 alone, 26 million people were displaced by climate change. And by 2050, 216 million people could be affected globally.
Vulnerable Areas Are Suffering: Countries in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East are facing severe climate challenges. From water stress in sub-Saharan Africa to the rising sea levels in low-lying regions, these areas are increasingly uninhabitable, forcing people to migrate.
The Need for Adaptation: Migration is not just a response to disasters; it’s also about securing livelihoods. People are leaving agricultural areas where crops no longer grow or livestock cannot survive. We need to support planned relocation and ensure there are resources available to help these migrants integrate and adapt.
Prosdoma’s Commitment: At Prosdoma, we believe in fostering resilience. Through our programs, we assist newcomers by providing access to job search assistance, legal aid, and community support to help them successfully integrate. We also advocate for sustainable agricultural practices to address food security in communities affected by climate change.
The climate migration crisis requires urgent action. We must advocate for climate resilience, support sustainable development, and ensure that vulnerable communities have the resources to adapt. Let’s stand together and build a more sustainable future for all.
