"Charting a Roadmap for a Disrupted Landscape"

From the Gulf Coast to the Caribbean, across floodplains, fire zones, and cities without shade, communities are being forced to make impossible choices. Some leave in search of safety. Others remain, bound by history, policy, or poverty. What unites them is the shrinking space for freedom, mobility, and dignity.

​

By 2050, climate-related displacement will impact tens of millions in North America alone—with the most vulnerable hit first and hardest. Yet systems across the U.S. and its neighboring regions still treat displacement as a surprise, not a certainty.

​

WEHAV exists to change that.
We build tools, strategies, and shared knowledge for communities on the edge—committed to justice, resilience, and foresight. We believe every person deserves the right, the resources, and the power to choose safety, dignity, and a place to call home.
