Our shared focus on climate change

Climate change is already a humanitarian crisis with major consequences. Climate change is creating more and more catastrophic disasters and is already now affecting the most vulnerable populations and natural disasters such as flooding, or drought are increasing around the world. We all feel the consequences of climate change, but the extend of the consequences depends on where in the world you are and your ability to withstand the changes. Together we want to take responsibility to improve the living conditions for the most vulnerable people affected by climate change.
