Global Programme – Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change II in Global, Fiji, Philippines, ECOWAS The negative impacts of climate change are already influencing migration today. In the future, this situation will be exacerbated by more frequent and more severe extreme weather events and by rising sea levels. Migration often takes place within national borders, and immobility is an increasing challenge. The populations in atoll and island states and in the coastal regions of the Philippines and West Africa are particularly hard hit. Global frameworks and initiatives recognise climate change as a driver of migration and migration as a climate adaptation strategy and are calling for solutions. Measures for dealing with human mobility in the context of climate change (HMCCC) are vital for survival for the population groups affected. Governments and other relevant actors therefore require application-based knowledge and skills to test and implement measures and share their experiences with partners. The international, national and regional implementation of climate-resilient and gender-responsive approaches to HMCCC has improved. |
