This session looks at a reality that is no longer distant. Climate-driven disasters are accelerating migration across the Americas, and Latino communities, especially farmworkers, are living the consequences as hurricanes, drought, and extreme heat displace families and worsen already dangerous working conditions. Migrants arriving in the U.S. face added pressures, from unstable housing to limited protections and increased enforcement. The session connects climate, migration, and labor directly, and focuses on how to speak about these issues clearly and responsibly. Through discussion and real-world scenarios, participants will build skills to advocate, communicate effectively, and elevate the voices of those most affected. Participants who complete the session will receive the ecoAmerica x LULAC Climate Change Ambassador Certificate, recognizing their readiness to lead in this space.
