Description

Accelerating climate change is widely predicted to have profound impacts on human mobility over the coming decades. Climate mobilities and immobilities invoke issues of justice and social inequality and pose numerous socio-cultural, health, economic, legal and political challenges. Current international legal frameworks and national governance mechanisms provide insufficient protection for people displaced by climate change who are often subjected to health risks, psychosocial trauma, human rights abuse, and even new climatic risks. At the same time, there is a need to better understand how climate change interacts with other mobility drivers and why many climate-affected people decide to stay put or remain trapped in at-risk locations. Drawing on a wide range of disciplinary traditions and featuring Indigenous voices and youth perspectives, this book introduces new conceptual frameworks and empirical studies to examine the unique challenges facing people on the move and those staying behind.

Author Biography:

Andreas Neef is a Professor in Development Studies at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. He has researched and published in the areas of climate change adaptation, land and resource grabbing, development- and disaster-induced displacement, post-disaster response and recovery, participatory approaches to research and development, and community resilience. He is currently leading a large research consortium of more than 30 academics from 15 universities across five continents on "Climate-Induced Migration: Global Scope, Regional Impacts and National Policy Frameworks", funded by the Worldwide Universities Network (WUN). Together with German colleagues, he is also a principal investigator of the collaborative research project "International Climate Migration and Climatic Poverty Traps in the Asia-Pacific Region (INTERCEPT), jointly funded by the Royal Society of New Zealand and the German Ministry of Education and Research. He serves on the editorial boards of five international journals and has guest-edited special issues and themed features for several journals, including "International Journal of the Commons", "Development in Practice", "Water Alternatives", "Law and Development Review" and "Land". Together with Dr Natasha Pauli (University of Western Australia), he edited the book "Climate-Induced Disasters in the Asia-Pacific Region: Response, Recovery, Adaptation" for Emerald in 2020. Bukola Salami is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Nursing, University of Alberta, Canada. Her research program focuses on policies and practices shaping migrants' health. She has been involved in around 60 funded research projects. She is the lead on 20 of these projects with funding from national and international agencies. She has led research projects on African immigrant child health, immigrant child mental health, access to healthcare for immigrant children, African immigrant youth mental health, migration of nurses as live-in caregivers, experience of temporary foreign workers in Alberta, downward occupational mobility of immigrant nurses and parenting practices of African immigrants. Dr Salami has around 60 published scholarly articles in peer-reviewed journals (with another 15 under review), two book chapters, and eight reports. She represents the University of Alberta on the steering committee of the Worldwide Universities Network Global Africa Group. She founded and leads an African migrant child research network of 32 scholars from four continents. She is on the editorial board of two health science journals. Natasha Pauli is a Senior Lecturer in Geography at the University of Western Australia. Her research examines human-environment interactions in a range of settings from urban streetscapes to smallholder agriculture, with an emphasis on understanding how people perceive and manage ecological relationships under changing environmental conditions. Her research is applied in nature, linking with policy and practice. Dr Pauli is an investigator with the Australian National Environmental Science Program's Clean Air and Urban Landscapes Hub, where she co-leads a project linking the social, cultural and ecological values of urban greening. Dr Pauli is an interdisciplinary researcher who has published scholarly articles on climate change adaptation, social-ecological systems, water vulnerability, soil health and biodiversity in a range of settings across Australia, the Pacific, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. She is particularly interested in ways of respectfully integrating diverse knowledges to aid environmental planning and management. Together with Prof Andreas Neef (University of Auckland), she edited the book "Climate-Induced Disasters in the Asia-Pacific Region: Response, Recovery, Adaptation" for Emerald in 2020.
