Climate risk doesn’t begin with disaster. It begins with ignored data.

In Ghana, rising temps, erratic rain & toxic rice reveal a deeper crisis.

At @GeohazardMaps, we used MODIS, CHIRPS & GEE to map what’s changing, & why it matters.

Our focus on the impacts of floods on children and teenagers centers on understanding their unique vulnerabilities, addressing the disruptions to their education, health, and overall well-being, and creating targeted interventions to build resilience.

Flooding disrupts education for millions of Nigerian students. GRMI’s survey, featured in the Tribune, calls for action:

✅ Flood-resilient schools
✅ Mental health support for students
✅ Youth-led disaster risk mapping

Flooding shouldn’t take away any child’s chance to learn and grow. We’re working to keep schools open, protect children’s well-being, and ensure their voices are heard through the Children’s Charter for DRR.
