In this interactive self-paced course, learners gain an understanding of how climate change influences human mobility. By introducing key concepts like climate-related migration, disaster displacement, planned relocation and trapped populations, the training builds the capacities needed to consider human mobility in the context of climate change (HMCCC) in your related field of work. The training showcases diverse examples from different countries on the phenomena of HMCCC, impacts on vulnerable groups as well as policy frameworks and options on how to address mobility.

This course is designed for policymakers and staff of government institutions as well as professionals within the field of development. Researchers, students and anyone interested in learning more about how climate change impacts human mobility are invited to take the course as well.

The course was developed in cooperation between  the United Nations University – Institute for Environment and Human Security (UNU-EHS) and the GIZ Global Programme Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development.
