Climate Disasters Push Coastal Children Out of School
Original: Children in Coastal Areas Dropping Out of School Due to Climate Change; Disasters Disrupt Education, Increasing Child Labor
Children living in coastal areas are increasingly dropping out of school as climate change drives disasters that disrupt education, according to a report highlighted by international press agency Pressenza. The findings warn that repeated flooding, storms and other climate-related events are interrupting schooling and pushing children into child labor as families cope with losses to income and livelihoods.
Why now: Concern is growing over how extreme weather linked to climate change is derailing children's education worldwide.
