Today, millions of refugees face closed borders, exclusion, fear, and barriers to their right to seek safety and protection. When rights are denied to some, they are weakened for all.

Among the consequences of climate change, rising seas and stronger storms are disrupting island and coastal communities, placing their future at risk and forcing people to make difficult decisions: including leaving their homes as they are no longer safe.
This is a global emergency.
In Our Island is a documentary by JRS Asia Pacific featuring the vision, views, and values of climate-vulnerable communities in Bohol, Philippines.
This film was produced as part of the Research and Advocacy for Climate Policy and Action project, in partnership with the Institute of Environmental Science for Social Change and the Percik Institute, with support from the Government of Australia and .

As we prepare our hearts for Laudato Siโ€™ Weekend, youโ€™re invited to pause, reflect, and respond.

Come visit our exhibition and learn how the climate crisis is affecting vulnerable communitiesโ€”and how we are each called to care more deeply for our common home.

Pope Leo XIV at Bata Prison in Equatorial Guinea: "True justice seeks not so much to punish as to help rebuild the lives of victims, offenders and communities wounded by evil. There is no justice without reconciliation. This is an immense undertaking. Part of it can happen within prisons, but the greater part must involve the entire national community, in order to prevent and heal the wounds caused by injustice."
