In this episode of Paper Chains, we unpack a powerful report from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) examining how climate change is increasing vulnerability to human trafficking—especially for women and girls. As environmental disasters, drought, and displacement reshape communities, migration becomes a survival strategy. But for many, that movement comes with heightened risk of exploitation. We break down how climate instability, gender inequality, and trafficking intersect—and why this issue is likely to define the future of anti-trafficking work.
