Climate Change and Migration ​Hybrid Event May 15, 3-4:30 p.m.
Climate change is an important driver of human migration. Dr. Angie Dickens (Christ Presbyterian Church Refuge group; formerly on staff at the EPA and WI DNR) will help us look at how climate change is impacting different parts of the world and the effect this has on migration. We will explore ways we can respond as people of faith to these crises.
