Mobilizing parliaments to address Climate Migration

This virtual learning lab, taking place within the framework of the VIII Regional Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction in the Americas and the Caribbean, will examine strategies that parliaments can support to build resilience to prevent forced climate migration, and the ways that relocation plans can be integrated into disaster risk reduction plans. It will also provide recommendations that should be considered to ensure relocation plans are gender responsive, highlighting how differential circumstances, such as a sense of security, education, resource availability, and other social demographics, may impact women and girls' decision to migrate, and obstacles they face during the migration process, and upon arriving to their new location.
