Seminar on Climate Change (Songkla Province)

Adaptation and Management to Mitigate Impacts on Vulnerable Groups According to the Principle of Leaving No One Behind

The impacts of global warming and climate change already had serious impacts around the world: Heat waves, severe storms, heavy rains, flash floods, landslides, melting snow caps, wildfires and droughts. All these disasters – both directly and indirectly – affect human life and in particular vulnerable people such as children, disabled and elderly people and other less privileged groups.
