Climate migration is no longer a distant fear — it’s a reality. In Fiji, it’s a particularly pressing reality. Rising seas and extreme weather have forced entire communities to move.

Meanwhile, the rest of the world is watching closely as one billion people may find themselves in a similar situation in a matter of decades.
