A new paper in UNHCR’s Legal and Protection Policy Research Series considers protection options for people displaced as a result of climate change. Entitled “Protecting People Crossing Bor
ders in the Context of Climate Change: Normative Gaps and Possible Approaches,” the paper looks at “normative gaps as
well
as current approaches on cross-border movements induced by the impact of climate change, and assesses possible strategies to create an effective protection regime for these people, taking account of the likelihood of a substantial increase of affected persons in the future.”
