Overview
In recent years, Iraq has faced a convergence of challenges that have severely impacted its social and environmental landscape. Among the most pressing issues are the ongoing conflicts that have resulted in significant internal displacement and the escalating impacts of climate change. The case study, "Disrupted Lives: Climate Crisis and Internal Displacement in Sumel District, Iraq," conducted by CARE Iraq, explores the multifaceted nature of displacement in Iraq, focusing particularly on how climate change exacerbates the difficulties faced by internally displaced persons (IDPs).
By examining the specific case of Sumel District, this study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between climate change and displacement, offering insights into the experiences of affected communities and outlining strategies for resilience and adaptation.
