Climate Migration: Our New Reality and Shared Responsibility

cc

Extreme weather isn’t just a forecast — it’s forcing people to leave their homes 🌍

From the devastating wildfires in Maui to the prolonged drought in the Horn of Africa, climate disasters are uprooting millions. In 2022 alone, 3.2 million adults in the U.S. were displaced due to disasters. And worldwide, the numbers are even more staggering.

🌡️ Climate change interacts with existing vulnerabilities — poverty, conflict, and food insecurity — creating a powerful push to migrate. Whether it’s flooding in Pakistan, back-to-back hurricanes in Central America, or unbearable heat in Phoenix, people are moving in search of safety.

Yet climate migrants are often left without legal protections. There’s still no formal recognition of their status, no clear migration pathways, and very limited support systems.

But there is hope. Initiatives like the Climate Displaced Persons Act propose new frameworks — including legal pathways for migration and investments in global resilience 🌱

At PROSDOMA, we believe migration should never be a life-threatening decision. That’s why we support displaced individuals — from newcomers in Alberta to climate-affected communities in Africa — by offering tools to build safer, more sustainable lives. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏿

Let’s raise awareness and advocate for just and compassionate solutions. Join us in supporting sustainable migration pathways and climate resilience.

📢 Get involved with PROSDOMA. Together, we can create a future where no one is left behind.
