Millions of children are being driven from their homes by weather- related events, exacerbated by climate change While the link between climate change and displacement is complex, it’s clearer than ever that the climate is shifting patterns of displacement, according to a new report from the United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF) ‘Children displaced in a changing climate: Preparing for a future already underway’ analyses the most common weather-related hazards that lead to the largest number of displacements: floods, storms, droughts and wildfires The report notes that there were 43.1 million internal displacements of children linked to weather-related disasters over a six-year period – the equivalent to approximately 20,000 child displacements per day. Almost all – 95 per cent – of recorded child displacements were driven by floods and storms The WMO State of the Global Climate reports include information on displacement and migration patterns as a result of extreme weather and climate change impacts.
