Addressing Climate Migration & Considerations for the Future

Date: Thursday, October 30
Start Time: 5:30pm ET

Rising global temperatures and a shift in climate patterns have rapidly increased the number of climate migrants. As the world faces these new geopolitical challenges, how can nations collaborate to ensure the rights of people moving due to climate change?   

On October 30 at 5:30pm ET, Carnegie Council will host a panel discussion as part of the Ethics Empowered: Leadership in Practice series. The convening will examine this distinct global-scale challenge that goes to the heart of the moral case for both sovereignty and human rights. This session will feature two distinguished experts reflecting on the state of climate migration today and considerations for the future. The Ethics Empowered: Leadership in Practice event series is specifically tailored for students and young professionals to enhance their subject-matter expertise in geopolitics and applied ethics. Register to attend this panel discussion and Q&A.
