The ‘migration with dignity’ policy is part of Kiribati’s long-term nation-wide relocation strategy.

FMR 49 - Land, disasters and mobility in the South Pacific

The adaptive characteristics of customary land systems deserve greater recognition in disaster or climate change policy frameworks.

FMR 49 - Not drowning but fighting: Pacific Islands activists

Focusing on climate-induced migration, rather than mitigation, can be at odds with grassroots demands and can make the future uninhabitability of some Pacific Islands appear as a foregone conclusion.

FMR 49 - Samoa: local knowledge, climate change and population movements

The voices of scientists, academics, politicians and development practitioners dominate the climate change debate, yet local knowledge, values and beliefs are essential elements of navigating the way forward for affected communities.
