Our Common Future under Climate Change
7 - 9 July 2015
Paris, France
The International Scientific Conference “Our Common Future under Climate
Change” took place at UNESCO and Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC) from 7
to 9 July 2015 in Paris, showcasing evidence-based ways to both reduce
emissions and build resilient societies. Building on IOM’s global research,
operational, and policy experience, IOM experts contributed to three sessions
to reflect on the pathway from knowledge to action in the area of
climate-related migration governance.
Dina Ionesco of IOM HQ participated as a speaker in the “Predicting the social
impacts of climate change: Migration, environment and climate change in a world
of global uncertainties” session, which was convened by Francois Gemenne,
Global research coordinator of the MECLEP project. Along with “Addressing
migration in the context of global environmental change: an institutional
perspective”, IOM’s presentations explored the opportunities migration offer in
the context of climate change, and discussed the challenges around addressing
environmental and climate-related migration, including the difficulty of
measuring and framing environmental migration and producing evidence to inform
decision makers; the challenge of bridging the gap between empirical knowledge
and political action, and of putting policies into practice. The sessions
provided recommendations and possible avenues for improved action and
governance of environmental migration, as a contribution ahead of the COP21.
Alice Sironi of IOM HQ’s International Migration Law Unit presented legal
frameworks and challenges of environmental migration during the “Governance and
Justice” session. The presentation provided an overview of the particular
challenges environmental migrants may face in terms of human rights and
justice; existing legal instruments, their applicability in the context of
environmental migration, as well as their limitations and discuss the prospects
and challenges for creating a protection framework for those displaced or
migrating in the context of climate change. As the leading migration agency,
IOM shared its practical experience and emphasized the importance of a
rights-based approach to the management of environmental migration.

Kenya Policymaker Capacity Building Workshop on
Migration, Environment, Climate Change
10-12 August 2015
Sarova Stanley Hotel, Nairobi, Kenya
In coordination with the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), an
EU-funded three-day IOM training workshop on migration, environment and climate
change policy took place in Nairobi from 10 to 12 August. Issues related to
land tenure and management were of particular interest and relevance. The
training workshop was co-funded by the IOM Development Fund and was facilitated
by several national experts, the MECLEP partner, Bielefeld University, the
MECLEP team as well as the regional IOM office in Nairobi. The interactive
modules were successfully pilot tested by adapting them to the context in Kenya
(See photos). It was the third policymaker training workshop following the
Haiti and Dominican Republic workshops in July.
The next policymaker workshop will take place in Port Moresby, Papua New
Guinea, in October 2015.
