SUMMARY:Indivisible Justice  MIGRATION & THE CLIMATE CRISIS
DESCRIPTION:Online Webinar. Thursday 27 July 18:00 – 19:30 (BST)      \nJoin us to hear from climate and migrant justice activists and movement leaders – and find out what you can do to build power from the ground up in your own community.\nThe climate crisis and the struggle for migrant justice are deeply connected. Indigenous groups, small-scale farmers, and communities all over the world are being forcibly displaced by devastating floods, severe droughts and rising sea levels. While most are displaced within their own countries, a small number cross borders in search of safety.\nThese communities are often met with militarised, violent borders and hostile immigration systems. Rich, industrialised Global North countries — the biggest historic polluters and contributors to the climate crisis — are spending, on average, 2.3 times as much on arming their borders as they are on providing financial support to the poorer Global South countries most impacted by the climate crisis. \nPeople have always migrated for safety and to build a better life, but as more people are forced from their communities by the climate crisis, we must ensure that safe pathways are opened. Migrant and climate justice means fighting for the right to stay – to defend communities from the impacts of the climate crisis through global action, and the right to move — for communities to migrate safely and with dignity, when staying is not possible. This means connecting climate and migrant groups in our communities to fight the hostile environment and build power together from the ground up.\nJoin War on Want, the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, Migrants Organise, and the Climate Justice Coalition on Thursday 27 July at 18:00, as we speak with activists and movement leaders around the world. Find out how you can be part of the movement for climate justice and migrant justice.\n
