Description
Managing Disaster Induced Displacement in the Global South provides a crucial examination of the rising challenge of displacement caused by natural disasters--a consequence increasingly felt in the world's most vulnerable regions. This timely volume delves into the complex interplay of climate change, environmental degradation, and socio-economic factors that drive displacement, offering a comprehensive look at how communities, governments, and international organizations can respond effectively. Drawing on an array of case studies from across the Global South, the book presents innovative strategies and policies that have been employed to manage the risks and realities of displacement. The book explores themes of resilience, adaptation, and the often-overlooked human rights issues that arise during such crises. It highlights the complexity of the issue by examining the multifaceted causes and consequences of disaster-induced displacement, shedding light on the interconnected roles of climate change, environmental degradation, and socio-economic vulnerabilities. It brings knowledge together in a single resource, compiling recent research, case studies, and best practices from various contexts within the Global South to provide a comprehensive guide that can inform policy, practice, and research. Through detailed analysis and presentation of innovative solutions and policy frameworks that have shown promise, the book guides policymakers, community leaders, and international organizations toward adopting more holistic and proactive approaches to managing displacement. Written by leading experts in disaster management, human rights, and environmental policy, this book is an indispensable resource for policymakers, scholars, and activists seeking informed and practical paths forward in the face of one of the most pressing global challenges of our time.
