p 2 : « IOM, UNHCR, UNU and NRC therefore compiled this joint submission with the aim of bringing the migration and displacement implications of climate change to the attention of the UNFCCC and requesting that these implications are considered in the 15th Conference of Parties agreement. This submission is based on the assembly document text (FCCC/AWGLCA/2008/16/Rev.1) and contains concrete text proposals in order to indicate the gaps relating to migration and displacement in the previous draft and facilitate the inclusion of these issues in subsequent versions of the draft agreement. Climate-change related migration and displacement is a topic of relevance for (...)

Changement climatique | Déplacement de population | Apatride |Natural disasters, particularly those related to climate change, are fast becoming a leading cause of forced displacement although conceptual, normative and institutional frameworks to provide human rights protection to the environmentally displaced1 are not yet in place. This article discusses the human rights and protection dimensions of disaster-induced displacement, identifies the major challenges to protecting disaster victims, and proposes ways forward. The authors argue that while most environmentally displaced persons are expected to remain within their own countries, there is a lack of clarity about the status and protection needs of those uprooted by (...)
Brookings Institution | Brookings-LSE Project on Internal Displacement | Catastrophe naturelle |While there is growing interest in the issue of climate change and displacement, there doesn’t seem to be consensus about the ‘entry point’ into the debate. Many have tried to estimate the potential scale of displacement, with widely varying results resulting from different assumptions and methodologies. Others have analyzed the legal gaps, particularly for those who cross international borders because of the effects of climate change. Still others have sought to analyze the potential for increased conflict resulting from the effects of climate (...)
UNHCR | Brookings Institution | Brookings-LSE Project on Internal Displacement |Ce travail est une réponse au plan d’action de Bali. Il étudie la protection des personnes déplacées à l’intérieur de leur Etat ou vers d’autres Etats en raison du changement climatique.

Particular challenges for the displaced as well as for the authorities concerned arise in the context of evacuations before and during disasters, relocations because return to the original place of residence is not possible or too dangerous and, more (...)
