    Please join me in watching the exclusive short film Drought in Chile, available here:
    🎥 Watch the film: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/sor1c98kkcmsfb5m3xvkj/Drought-in-Chile-U…

    This compelling documentary explores the severe impacts of drought in Chile — from water scarcity and devastating wildfires to the lived experiences of rural communities and frontline responders.

    It features voices from affected regions, national focal points, and experts, and highlights the urgent need for climate action, ecological restoration, and equitable water governance.

    A powerful reminder that drought is not only a climate crisis — but also a social and human one.
