- More about Environment, Climate Change and Migration in South Asia
Climate change is causing migration and could lead to over one billion climate migrants/refugees by 2050. In South Asia, disasters, environmental degradation, and climate change are increasing the number of migrants, with some crossing borders. Migrants and displaced people face hostile situations, and the book highlights the challenges and inadequacies of governments and communities in protecting the environment. It also discusses the gendered experiences of climate-related migrations and policy measures to counter forced displacements and environment degradation.

Climate change has been a major driver of migration, with estimates suggesting that there could be over one billion climate migrants/refugees worldwide by 2050. In South Asia, disasters, environmental degradation, and climate change are exacerbating the number of migrants annually. While most migrants and displaced individuals remain within their countries, some cross porous borders. Unfortunately, they often face hostility from their local host populations.
The book explores the challenges and inadequacies of governments and communities in protecting the environment and the disproportionate impact of climate change on the poor and marginalized groups. It also delves into the gendered experiences of climate-related migrations and the policy measures needed to address forced displacements and environmental degradation. The book provides insights into the legal and institutional resources that can help mitigate climate change and protect climate refugees.
This book is of interest to students and researchers in development studies, ecology and environment, migration, sociology, law and governance, human ecology, climate change, and economics. It offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of climate-related migration and the urgent need for action to address this global issue.
