Sheltering Futures: The Intersection of Climate Resilience and Social Equity
Climate change is no longer a distant threat; its effects are being felt worldwide through rising temperatures and increasing sea levels.

This gradual climatic shift is causing a climate migration phenomenon where marginalized groups are forced to relocate due to extreme environmental stresses. The most at risk are low and lower-middle-income countries like Afghanistan, Somalia, and Mozambique that are disproportionately affected by disaster-related displacements due to limited infrastructure, resources, and adaptive capacity.
