Climate change and displacement

Forced migration review, issue 31, October 2008:

This issue of FMR debates the numbers, the definitions and the modalities of people's movement and communities adaptation in response to growing pressures on landscapes and livelihoods - and the tension between the need for research and the need to act. Thirty-eight articles by UN, academic, international and local actors explore the extent of the potential displacement crisis, community adaptation and coping strategies, and the search for solutions.
