From Crisis to Action: Climate Change and Migration Lunch n' Learn
From life-threatening floods to extreme droughts, climate change is making more places unlivable and driving an increase in migration, both within and across national borders. Join Democracy Fellow Ali Noorani (Hewlett Foundation), Taryn Higashi (Unbound Philanthropy), and Rich Stolz (Democracy Fund, Just Solutions Collective) as they discuss how climate change is leading to greater levels of mobility, the ways governments need to respond, and how Americans – much less Chicagoans – understand the way these changes are impacting communities.
