Climate Change, Migration and Health in Latin America and the Caribbean
Webinar 3: How Climate Change is Changing Women’s Health in LAC
Migrant women of all ages, ethnicities, cultures, and backgrounds provide essential care to others globally, within and outside their families to sustain health, well-being and comfort to their loved ones. There is a large proportion of migrants who are women, even larger than male migrants in some countries. Female migration is marked by gender risks and vulnerabilities, and, at the same time, migrant women develop unique and powerful resources and resilience during transit and in host societies. Climate change has been poorly explored in its connection with migrant women´s health in LAC, and this webinar will expand evidence-based knowledge about how climate change is changing women´s health in this region.
