As more people face displacements/forced migration due to climate change, we must tell stories that reflect the lives/experiences of people on the move. This training will empower journalists with tools to report climate induced migration efficiently/promote climate literacy.

We need to equip more journalists with the adequate tools and resources for reporting climate migration. The 2-day training on reporting climate migration in Africa understands the need for engaging journalists and on-the-ground activists in combating information poverty.
