This book examines whether a global consensus is emerging on
climate change and human mobility and presents evidence of a
slow-moving but dynamic, step-by-step process of international
policy development on climate-related mobility. Naser reviews the
range of solutions offered to address climate-related mobility
problems, such as extending the 1951 UN Refugee Convention,
adopting an additional protocol to the UNFCCC or creating a new
international treaty to support those facing climate-related
migration and displacement problems. He examines the accumulating
stock of international policies and initiatives relevant to
climate-related mobility using a framework of six policy areas:
human rights, refugees, climate change, disaster risk reduction,
migration,and sustainable development. He uses this framework to
define and summarise the main UN actions and milestones on
climate-related mobility. Despite the difficult context affecting
the global community of worsening climate change impacts and human
rights under threat, Naser asserts that the foundations of global
consensus on climate-related mobility have been built, particularly
in the last decade. This book will be of great relevance to
students, scholars and policy-makers with an interest in the
increasing interface between climate change and human mobility
policy issues.
