Climate change, vulnerability and migration: Impacts on youth and children in South East Asia
This report examines the impacts of labour migration on children in the context of climate change. Through interviews with pre-adolescents and teenagers in six villages in Cambodia, Lao PDR and Viet Nam, as well as young returned migrants, migrant parents and grandparents, it portrays life at the intersection of climate change, poverty, marginalization and injustice.
The report provides detailed recommendations focused on five objectives:
- Enhance community resilience through robust infrastructure and disaster preparedness;
- Provide flexible and fair support for sustainable livelihoods;
- Protect both parents and children who migrate;
- Care for caregivers - and the children who stay with them; and
- Empower children and youth to be able to build a better future for themselves.
