International Dialogue on Migration No. 36 – Think About Tomorrow, Act Today: The Future of Human Mobility and Climate Change

The second session of International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) 2023, held in Geneva on 5–6 October 2023, was themed “Think about Tomorrow, Act Today: The Future of Human Mobility and Climate Change”. The session builds upon the outcomes of the Kampala Declaration and the 2023 SDG Summit, and with the vision to provide input to the discussions at the Twenty-eighth Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP28) and other key events, in particular the United Nations Summit of the Future in 2024 and the regional reviews of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration.

Many opportunities exist to broaden the range of solutions available to States, communities and other stakeholders to address human mobility in the context of climate change – from scaling up existing measures that have proven effective, to learning from one another and identifying the different contexts in which solutions have been successful, as well as promoting cooperation to develop further solutions. This IDM session promoted cross-thematic and cross-regional linkages, highlighting challenges, opportunities and good practices to help place climate mobility high on global and regional agendas for more collaborative and effective action.
