Climate emergency
This El Nino season has caused global heavy rains, flooding, and landslides. From the East and Horn of Africa to Brazil, families have been flooded out of their homes, with nowhere else to go.
Sadly, disasters like flooding are only going to become more common, as the climate crisis creates more extreme weather patterns and drives more people to flee their homes.
UNCHR is on the ground responding to these climate emergencies, helping people rebuild after losing everything. But we don’t stop there. UNHCR is also working with affected communities to better prepare and adapt to extreme climate conditions.
Please donate to support this vital work.
The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat. It’s happening right now, and those forced to flee conflict are being hit the hardest.

If ongoing conflicts remain unresolved and the risks of new ones erupting are not reined in, one aspect that will define the twenty-first century will be the continuously growing numbers of people forced to flee and the increasingly dire options available to them.
