Platform on Disaster Displacement

Info

Addressing the needs of people displaced across borders in the context of disasters and climate change. Led by Germany.

Geschichte

Every year, millions of people are forcibly displaced by floods, wind-storms, earthquakes, droughts and other natural hazards. Many find refuge within their own country but some have to move abroad. In the context of climate change, such movements are likely to increase. National and international responses to this challenge are insufficient and protection for affected people remains inadequate.
