	Migration as Adaptation? K. Vinke; Bergmann, J.; Blocher, J.; et. al. (2021) CC View PDF(6) Download (7) Add to my MEDBOX The discourse on climate change and migration has shifted from labelling migration merely as a consequence of climate impacts, to describing it as a form of human adaptation. This article explores the adaptation framing of the climate change and migration nexus and highlights its shortcomings and advantages. While for some groups, under certain circumstances migration can be an effective form of adaptation, for others it leads to increased vulnerabilities and a poverty spiral, reducing their adaptive apacities. Non-economic losses connected to a change of place further challenge the notion of successful adaptation. Even when migration improves the situation of a household, it may conceal the lack of action on climate change adaptation from national governments or the international community. Given the growing body of evidence on the diverse circumstances and outcomes of migration in the context of climate change, we distinguish between reactive and proactive migration and argue for a precise differentiation in the academic debat Tags: Migration, adaption, Climate Change, Source: https://watermark.silverchair.com/mnaa02

	Groundswell: Acting on Internal Climate Migration. Overview World Bank (2021) CC View PDF(11) Download (10) Add to my MEDBOX his sequel to the Groundswell report includes projections and analysis of internal climate migration for three new regions: East Asia and the Pacific, North Africa, and Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Qualitative analyses of climate-related mobility in countries of the Mashreq and in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are also provided. This new report builds on the scenario-based modeling approach of the previous Groundswell report from 2018, which covered Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America. The two reports’ combined findings provide, for the first time, a global picture of the potential scale of internal climate migration across the six regions, allowing for a better understanding of how slow-onset climate change impacts, population dynamics, and development contexts shape mobility trends.

International Military Council on Climate and Security (2021) CC View PDF(8) Download (11) Add to my MEDBOX The World Climate and Security Report (WCSR) 2021 from the Expert Group of the International Military Council on Climate and Security is a global assessment of the security dimensions of a changing climate and effective means to address them. It is intended to inform timely climate and security policy and action, and builds upon the analysis in the first WCSR, released in February 2020 Tags: Climate Change, security, Source: https://imccs.org/wp-content/uploads/202
	Walking into the Eye of the Storm: How the climate crisis is driving child migration and displacement Clarey, T.; Jiwanji, A.; Selby, S. (2021) CC View PDF(12) Download (13) Add to my MEDBOX Discussions about climate change often focus on the future, but millions of children are experiencing its devastating impacts now. The scale of the crisis is huge, and growing fast. It is children that will bear the brunt of climate change, yet its impact on them is understudied, their voices are not being heard, and current solutions are woefully inadequate. It is a perfect storm that we must stop in its path – before it is too late.

	Positioning zoonotic disease research in forced migration: A systematic literature review of theoretical frameworks and approaches Tasker, A.; Braam, D. PLOS ONE (2021) C1 View PDF(9) Download (7) Add to my MEDBOX The emergence and transmission of zoonotic diseases are driven by complex interactions between health, environmental, and socio-political systems. Human movement is considered a significant and increasing factor in these processes, yet forced migration remains an understudied area of zoonotic research–due in part to the complexity of conducting interdisciplinary research in these settings Tags: Climate Change, planetary health, migration, conflict, Zoonotic diseases, literature review, Source: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/articl

Excecutive Summay International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies IFRC (2020) C1 View PDF(36) Download (40) Add to my MEDBOX The failure to protect the people most vulnerable to climate change is especially alarming given the steady increase in the number of climate and weather-related disasters. According to the World Disasters Report, the average number of climate and weather-related disasters per decade has increased nearly 35 per cent since the 1990s. Over the past decade, 83 per cent of all disasters were caused by extreme weather and climate-related events such as floods, storms, and heatwaves. Together, these disasters killed more than 410,000 people and affected a staggering 1.7 billion people Tags: disasters, humanitarian aid, humanitarian work, Climate Change, climate risk management, global impact, humanitarian impact, Natural Disasters, heat wave, floods, Source: https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.in
