Climate and conflict are more interlinked than they’ve ever been before.
People are fleeing conflict only to find themselves on the frontlines of the climate crisis.
Meanwhile that very climate crisis can fuel tensions and force more to flee. #COP29

Love.
Home.
Security.
Belonging.

Winter in armed conflict zones is more than cold, it's a fight for survival:

🏚️ Families face freezing nights without heat or shelter

💧 Destroyed infrastructure means no water, no food, no safety.

❄️ Hidden explosives under snow turn even gathering firewood into a deadly gamble
