Webinar | Exploring the Impacts of the Climate Crisis on Child Protection in Humanitarian Contexts

Now and for decades to come, climate change will exacerbate child protection risks and threats to the safety and mental health of children, and further inequity through its intergenerational impacts. This online session explored the existing evidence of the connections between climate change and risks to children’s protection and discussed the role that child protection actors and the wider humanitarian community can take to ensure the protection of children and well-being of children impacted by the climate crisis.

• Domtila Chesan, Grassroots Women's Rights Advocate, Founder and Executive Director of I-Rep Foundation
