Climate change has become one of the primary
drivers of human migration, with many observers
predicting that its impact will outweigh all other
man-made factors in the near future. While some na-
tural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods, result
in immediate and direct human displacements, climate
change-related emergencies, such as drought and ero-
sion, result in slow but steady migrations. As climate
change increases the likelihood of natural disasters,
the consequences will have far-reaching implications
for local and cross-border displacements, as well as in-
ternational policymaking.The edited volume combines two broad objectives.
First, it intends to present an alarming and innovative
perspective on climate change through case studies from
around the world. Second, it will provide a new perspective
on migration from the perspective of global and regional
dynamics that force people to migrate. With a special emp-
hasis on Türkiye's climate change policy and its organizati-
onal capacity to meet new challenges that have emerged,
especially after its successful response to the massive inf-
lux of Syrian refugees, the edited volume overall aims to
inspire international organizations and governments to
find long-term solutions to this dynamic process.
