climate-induced displacement
Climate-induced displacement refers to people being forced to leave their homes due to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels, extreme weather events, droughts, and flooding. These environmental changes can damage infrastructure, threaten food and water supplies, and make areas unsafe or uninhabitable. As a result, individuals and communities often have no choice but to migrate to safer locations, either within their country or abroad. This displacement is becoming more common and poses significant challenges for affected people, governments, and aid organizations trying to manage and support those impacted.
