Learning to live with Climate Change

„My village is being taken back by the sea.” – Kaboua John’s voice trembles as he tells the story of his home island Kiribati, a small Pacific state, at the 2017 Bonn Climate Conference. Kiribati is not an isolated case – rather, climate change is increasingly threatening livelihoods of people worldwide. As a result, people leave their homes. Over the past 6 years, the Global Programme “Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change” has been tackling these challenges in regions like the Pacific Islands, the Caribbean, East Africa and in the Philippines. Read more about their stories and how the programme has collaborated with multiple partners to address climate-induced migration.

Global Programme Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change (HMCCC) – Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Component

In East Africa, periods of droughts are becoming more frequent and last longer, rainfall patterns are losing their predictability, leading to higher probabilities of floods in certain areas. This significantly affects how, when, and why people move. To address the consequent challenges, the Global Programme “Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change” supports one of Africa’s Regional Economic Communities, namely IGAD (Intergovernmental Authority on Development), to produce measures tailored to the region in order to help people adapt to a changing climate. Learn more about past achievements and ongoing activities in this factsheet.

La justicia climática en una adaptación basada en ecosistemas: El caso de los municipios indígenas en la provincia de la Mosquitia, Honduras

El caso de Honduras / La Mosquitia ilustra la importancia de integrar las cuestiones de justicia en el proyecto durante las primeras fases de planificación. Es especialmente importante integrar estas cuestiones en las estructuras y procesos de gobernanza en la zona del proyecto, aunque la gestión del proyecto también debe tenerlas en cuenta. Los puntos de entrada para anclar estratégicamente las cuestiones de justicia incluyen el concepto del proyecto, la estructura de dirección, el sistema de seguimiento y evaluación (S&E) y el concepto de personal. Integrar las distintas dimensiones de la justicia (justicia de reconocimiento, justicia procesal y justicia distributiva) a través de estos puntos de entrada es un requisito previo clave para que la justicia se tenga en cuenta en la ejecución del proyecto.
