   August 29, 2018

   The Climate Change Network for Community based Initiatives, Inc.( CCNCI ) in partnership with the University of the Philippines Institute of Human Rights (UPIHR) held Kwentuhang Klima (Climate Change Stories): A Summit on Climate Change Adaptation.

   Attended by more than 150 individuals representing 44 organizations and institutions, the activity was the culmination of a series of forums initiated by CCNCI to hear stories from the most vulnerable sectors of society, such as the farmers, fisherfolk, women, children, and indigenous peoples, on the effects of climate change, adaptation and mitigation practices, and their calls for climate change actions. 

   “The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)’s latest report projects an increase in the number of displaced over the course of this century. The risk of displacement intensifies when vulnerable populations experience higher exposure to extreme weather events, in both rural and urban areas, particularly in low-income countries. According to the IPCC, there is an emerging consensus that greater variability of climatic factors will have an increasing impact on the livelihoods and safety of the most vulnerable members of communities.”(1)
