In 2022, CJRF launched the Solution Series, a set of webinars where grant partners shared lessons, challenges, and impactful outcomes of their work with our community of grantees, funders, and climate practitioners.
This article is the third in a three-part series that explains how loss and damage impacts communities across the globe and what organizations are doing to address these challenges. In this third and final piece, we describe how Young Power in Social Action harnesses the power of community to uplift those experiencing climate-forced displacement.
As part of our commitment to generate learning from our portfolio, CJRF is piloting a new space for partners to learn from and connect with one another. Under the umbrella of the CJRF Learning Program, this new CJRF Solution Series enables partners to share lessons, challenges, and impactful outcomes of their work with the CJRF community, funders, and other climate practitioners.
Since 2012, Young Power in Social Action (YPSA) has used rights-based approaches to support climate-displaced people inside Bangladesh. They recognise that existing government programs do not meet climate-displaced peoples’ needs, often because local and national governments do not fully understand the challenges they face or how to support them.
