SUMMARY:Uncovering the Drivers of Climate Gentrification in the Global South: Case Study of Tacloban City, Philippines after Typhoon Haiyan
DESCRIPTION:Climate Change Displacement Dialogue\nOne of the worse impacts of climate change is forced displacement. Climate change is fueling internal and international migration and refugee trends through the extreme weather events (e.g. abnormally heavy rainfall, prolonged droughts, heatwaves, and cyclones), sea level rise, water and food insecurity and associated conflicts.\nThe United Nations General Assembly’s New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants, explicitly recognised that displacement are happening “in response to the adverse effects of climate change, natural disasters (some of which may be linked to climate change), or other environmental factors” (UNGA, 2016: article I.1).\nClimate change related displacement is on top of international agenda. Estimates show that climate change related events have been linked to 23.7 million internal displacements worldwide in 2021 and it is estimated that annually 20 million will be displaced. While majority of displacement occur internally, cross border displacement is also happening. As situation can get worse during the next few decades, it is crucial to better understand the significance of the problem, here climate displaced population, researchers, and experts to reduce the vulnerability, increase coping capacity, and enhance effective planning and policy alternatives at local, regional, national, and global levels.\nThe aim of this speaker series is to critically examine the current and future of climate displacement by hearing voices from different parts, sections, and viewpoints.\nSpeaker: Dr. Ginbert Permejo Cuaton – Research Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology and Social Policy, Lingnan University, Hong Kong SAR, China\nRegister Here ( https://yorku.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Micaq34HT5Cg81xojI2iCg )\n
