International first for disabled people at COP26

DICARP’s Professor Sébastien Jodoin is featured in this exclusive about the organisations cooperating to ensure that disabled people’s voices are heard at this year’s COP26.

“Disabled people are on the frontlines of the climate crisis - they are adversely affected both by the impacts of climate change and careless and ableist policies adopted to reduce carbon emissions. All over the world, an increasing number of disabled people are speaking out on the climate crisis and demanding ambitious and inclusive climate action from their governments.”
