Seeking Refuge - Family Saturday

Discovering the realities of climate migration

Created by the Biosphère and Oxfam-Québec, the Seeking Refuge exhibition presents the realities of climate migration, a phenomenon that forces hundreds of millions of people to leave their homes because of climate change.

Communities that adapt and innovate

Not everyone is exposed to the same climate risks. Vulnerability varies depending on where we live, our economic situation and the resources available to us. This family-friendly exhibition highlights the connections between the environment, social inequalities and population displacement.
