Everyday Emergency · Environmental Emergencies: Climate Crises and Humanitarian Response
Check out this newly released podcast by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) featuring Director of the Dahdaleh Institute Dr. James Orbinski, Community Scholars Carol Devine and Linn Biorklund Belliveau. In this episode, the host hears from MSF staff and scholars working with some of the populations most vulnerable to changing weather patterns and environmental degradation.
The episode also details the steps MSF is taking to better prepare for future climate crises and focusses on the ways in which increasingly significant climate shifts can have a knock-on effect in terms of conflict and displacement. The episode is a part of the Everyday Emergency Podcast series hoisted by MSF, bringing stories from people on the frontline of humanitarian emergencies across the world.
