The Middle East and North Africa is facing a dangerous web of climate change, water scarcity and displacement. #COP28 must prioritise support for conflict and displacement affected populations to overcome the growing crisis. Read NRC's new analysis here: https://t.co/DyEbbCrOWu

NRC's recent report reveals: Iraq faces a climate crisis accelerating faster than adaptation. Record-breaking temperatures and low water levels scorch the country.

How does climate change impact communities across #Iraq?

- Deepens vulnerabilities for 1.2 million displaced

- Restricts recovery of millions who have returned, resettled or relocated

- Stretches systems affected by decades of conflict to breaking point

This morning, we are releasing our third climate and displacement report for #Iraq. As millions across the country seek durable solutions to displacement, @NRC_MiddleEast analysis indicates climate is impeding, and in many cases overturning, recovery and self-reliance.

SOON …

[Imrul @glumphish]

With @KfW, @NRC_MiddleEast has been working to revitalize communities and community infrastructure to support durable solutions to displacement in #Iraq.

Full documentary out soon— but after we have a screening across offices and share it with the people we work with and for.

We are proud to be a part of the 3rd International Water Conference 🇮🇶.

In Baghdad, by pooling expertise and support across sectors, #Iraq can put anticipatory action at the forefront of climate mitigation measures on a national and regional scale.
