UNICEF report: Protecting children, including from economic exploitation, when climate change forces them to flee

No Place To Call Home, shines a light for the first time on the impact on children’s rights when children are forced to flee from home because of climate change.Around the world, record numbers of children are on the move – 1 in 45 children have been uprooted from their homes, and are moving across borders or within their own countries in precarious circumstances. Climate-related events and their impacts are contributing significantly to these staggering numbers. Extreme weather, rising sea levels, drought and melting glaciers are just some of the changes that are already placing huge pressure on children and their communities.As in every crisis, children are the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change that force them from their homes in the first place. [Report refers to vulnerability of children to trafficking, child labour, barriers to access to education.]
