Girls at great risk

Another alarming point highlighted by the report is the increased risk for adolescent girls. They face a greater risk of early pregnancy and violence during displacement caused by extreme weather events. This highlights the urgency of taking measures to protect this vulnerable population.

In light of these alarming data, UNICEF highlights the need for policymakers and the private sector to consider the risks children face from extreme weather events.

Furthermore, it is essential that vital services such as education and healthcare are prepared to deal with disasters and are inclusive to help children and their families recover from these difficult situations.
