On January 30, 2025, the IDRC Research Chairs on Forced Migration, with support by LERRN, hosted a webinar on Global South Perspectives on Climate Change and Displacement.
Moderated by Luisa Felina Freier (Peru), the webinar featured insights from Andrew Harper (UNHCR), Amal El Ouassif (Morocco), Desiree del Rosario (Dominican Republic), and Opporutuna Kweka (Tanzania). The discussion reflected on COP29 and explored how localized knowledge can drive more effective responses to climate-induced displacement.
