Legal Protection for environmental migrants: current challenges and Ways Forward
This book addresses the urgent challenge of legal protection for environmental migrants in an era of increasing climate change, natural disasters, and environmental degradation. It examines the gap in current international law, which lacks a specific framework for individuals forced to migrate due to environmental triggers, often leaving them without the status afforded to war refugees. Through an analytical approach, the authors review existing data, terminology, human rights, and regional and international initiatives. They propose a critical reflection on potential paths forward, including the amendment of existing conventions or the creation of new international agreements, emphasizing the need for global cooperation, empathy, and integrated policies to protect those displaced by environmental change.
