From Puerto Rico to Kiribati, from Syria to Bangladesh, from Chad to Greece, every day thousands of people are forced out of their homes due to environmental degradation or sudden natural disasters. Many find refuge within their own country, but some have to go abroad. This situation will only worsen if the climate crisis will not be addressed. During this Youth Daily Show, we will explore with two young leaders the important steps that need to be taken in order to address climate migration and to protect the affected people.

Forest Landscape Restoration for Climate, Nature and People
Forest landscape restoration initiatives emphasize different and often partly competing goals, like mitigating climate change, restoring biodiversity, and improving local livelihoods. The session highlights some of the important trade-offs among these goals. It focuses on the need to balance short-term economic benefits and long-term ecological and climate benefits from restoration and how to connect the interests and goals of different stakeholders across scales, from local to global and vice versa, in a fair and equitable fashion.
