Comprendre et traiter la vulnérabilité climatique des personnes handicapées
2024-05-22 11:00 - 12:00
Les personnes handicapées sont touchées de manière disproportionnée par les effets de la crise climatique dans le monde entier. Elles sont plus nombreuses à perdre la vie lors d’événements météorologiques graves tels que les vagues de chaleur ou les ouragans. Leur santé, leur sécurité et leur accès aux biens et aux services essentiels sont également gravement menacés par les perturbations graduelles du climat comme l’augmentation des températures. La vulnérabilité climatique accrue des personnes handicapées n’est toutefois ni inévitable ni naturelle. De nombreuses données et études de cas démontrent que les effets disproportionnés des changements climatiques sur les personnes handicapées sont le résultat des barrières économiques, sociales et institutionnelles auxquelles ces personnes doivent faire face dans la société, ainsi que de leur exclusion des initiatives d’adaptation climatique.

S’appuyant sur le modèle des droits humains en matière de handicaps, le professeur Jodoin soutiendra comment les acteurs gouvernementaux sont en mesure d’évaluer et de minimiser les préjudices climatiques subis par les personnes handicapées ainsi que d’impliquer ce groupe dans la planification de l’adaptation en tant qu’expert et acteur de changement. Une approche de l’adaptation climatique qui tient compte du handicap est non seulement essentielle pour protéger la vie et la sécurité des personnes handicapées, mais aussi primordiale pour renforcer la résilience climatique de la société dans son ensemble.
