Risks derived from climate change: a regional look at climate migration from international cooperation
Abstract
Climate change causes multiple consequences in different societies. One of the most prominent is the migratory movements derived from the negative effects of global warming. In recent years, the phenomenon of climate migration has been increasing and, unfortunately, it is a trend that will continue to rise in the coming decades. At the international level, there is still no agreement capable of providing a comprehensive response to this problem. The legal vacuum makes people who must migrate due to climate change look totally unprotected. Furthermore, this also leads to a lack of consensus in the framing and naming of this type of migration. The literature has been working in this sense, trying to collect positions and good practices in the matter.
