Why do or don’t people move? Where do they move to? Who gets to move? What is the impact of human mobility on communities that send and receive people? How can mobility and migration be used as a strategy to build community resilience? This session will address these questions and more. The panelists will share challenges and opportunities related to climate-induced human mobility, highlight some research, law, and policy needs, and explore ways in which we can build the capacity of our local communities to advance their climate resilience efforts, in cost-effective, just and equitable ways.
