Climate Action: Building Resilience for a Greener Future
Climate change is no longer a distant threat—it’s a daily reality, especially for displaced populations living in fragile environments. Refugee settlements often face deforestation, poor waste management, and unsustainable energy use, which intensify existing vulnerabilities. Our Climate Action program is a call to shift from survival to sustainability—equipping refugee and host communities with the tools, knowledge, and innovations needed to lead on climate resilience.
This program integrates climate action into the heart of refugee response strategies to safeguard both people and the planet.
