Description
This episode was recorded during the virtual learning lab ‘Mobilizing parliaments to address climate migration,’ held on March 1, 2023 within the framework of the VIII Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction in the Americas and the Caribbean (RP23), organized by the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR). The session explored strategies for parliaments to support resilience-building to prevent forced climate migration as well as how to integrate gender-responsive relocation plans into disaster risk management. The Honourable Member of the National Assembly Juan Diego Vásquez (Panama), moderated the multi-stakeholder dialogue, which featured the participation of the Honourable Member of the Chamber of Representatives Julia Londoño (Colombia); Pablo Escribano, Regional Thematic Specialist on Migration, Environment and Climate Change of the International Organization for Migration; and Vanya David, President of the Dominica National Council of Women. The panellists presented on Colombia’s bill to address the displacement of persons due to climate impacts; an overview of the patterns of climate migration in the Latin America and Caribbean region; and inclusive relocation strategies recognizing that natural hazards impact women and girls disproportionately, thus exacerbating gender equality, alongside other socio-economic disparities which persist even after relocation.
