Climate Migration: Transitioning From Strangers to Neighbors | Naomi Young | TEDxRyeNeckHigh

Seventeen-year-old Naomi Young is a powerful advocate for refugees facing displacement and cultural assimilation. She challenges Gen Z to shift their mindset, viewing immigrants as neighbors rather than strangers, especially in anticipation of future climate migrations.

An eleventh-grader, Naomi has actively supported Syrian refugee resettlement since eighth grade. Her TEDx talk highlights mass migration issues, aiming to transform public perceptions of refugees from "other" to "neighbors." This talk was delivered at a locally organized TEDx event.
