Study on the effects of climate change on families with children and adolescents in Save the Children’s intervention areas in Guatemala.

This report presents the results of a consultancy conducted for Save the Children in Guatemala, which aimed to provide evidence on how climate change affects families with children and adolescents in the areas where the organisation operates. This study is part of a global effort by Save the Children, initiated in 2022, which confirmed that children are suffering the direct and indirect effects of the climate crisis. This study continues to expand the evidence base on perceptions and experiences around these impacts in specific contexts, while highlighting the crucial role that adequate climate finance can play, especially in protecting children who are most vulnerable due to inequality and discrimination.
