How can climate change resilience bring opportunities to reduce inequalities?

Join our Facebook chat on 3 November: How can climate change resilience bring opportunities to reduce inequalities? As the #ParisAgreement on climate change is about to enter into force, don't miss the opportunity to discuss climate change resilience and how this can reduce inequalities in the world.

Our Assistant Secretary-General for Economic Development Lenni Montiel, and the team of authors behind the World Economic and Social Survey 2016: “Climate Change Resilience – An opportunity for reducing inequalities”, will be on UN DESA’s Facebook page on 3 November from 10 to 11 am EDT (https://www.facebook.com/joinundesa/) to discuss the findings of this survey and answer your questions.

- Find out how governments can play a vital role in reducing the risks of climate change to vulnerable populations;
- Deepen your understanding about the links between climate and development;
- Learn what type of policies would address root causes of inequalities and build climate change resilience.
