Every year, millions of people are forced to leave their homes due to climate change.

A record 32.6 million people were displaced by disasters in 2022, 98% of which were caused by weather-related hazards like floods, storms, wildfires and droughts.

But behind these staggering statistics are real people, with lives, complex stories and an urgent need for help. 

Our latest interview delves into the work of Estela Pareja, a human rights advocate who’s dedicated herself to defending refugees and forcibly displaced people. Her insights shine a light on one of the defining human rights issues of our century: climate migration, exploring its complex causes and challenges—whilst also offering hope for the future. 

Uncover the stories, suffering and solutions shaping the future of climate migration.
