Briefing: Feminist Foreign Policy and Climate-Induced Migration

Briefing: Feminist Foreign Policy and Climate-Induced Migration

Climate change due to global warming represents one of the greatest challenges to humankind today. While industrialised countries and multinational corporations are largely responsible for the current climate crisis, the effects of climate change are felt most severely by people who contribute the least to the acceleration of global warming (communities in the global South and low-income communities in the industrialised North). With current international law having no system to address this, this briefing calls for a Feminist Foreign Policy framework to be adopted in the handling of the climate emergency; and for organisations to help address this gap in protections for women, BIPOC, and other marginalised communities disproportionately displaced due to climate change.
