This open access book critically examines the policies and practices related to climate-related human mobility in Asia-Pacific and the legal and policy protection framework for climatically displaced migrants (CDMs) through an interdisciplinary human rights-based approach. While covering the policy and theoretical dimensions of mobility, it also evaluates the issue through empirical studies. The book illustrates how interdisciplinary rights-based approaches address and identify gaps in the protection framework for the region regarding dimensions of climate change displacement, migration, forced migration, susceptibility to climate change, and typology of climate change-induced displacement. Presenting multiple case scenarios, it recommends a legal mechanism based on human rights in a region brimming with variety and multiculturalism.
Bringing together voices from the Asia-Pacific Academic Network on Disaster Displacement, the book examines issues that are immediately relevant in countries where they are living and working. In addition to academic perspective, the chapters also bring perspectives from positions held in national human rights institutions and government. They bring insight into lived experience and policy processes, seeking to avert, minimize, and address displacement, including through general disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation initiatives, as well as specific initiatives around emergency preparedness for response and planned relocation and resettlement. The chapters examine diverse forms of human mobility, including displacement, planned relocation, and forced immobility. The combination of studies focusing on both sudden onset and slower onset movement is also distinctive. With a thorough understanding of the interdisciplinary rights-based approaches to the issue, students, researchers, policymakers, administrators, and all those engaged in studying these topics can quickly evaluate and appreciate how the rights of CDMs are protected on a national, regional, and international level in Asia-Pacific.

Mathew Scott co-leads the Human Rights and the Environment thematic area at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law in Lund, Sweden. His scholarship integrates social science perspectives with international legal standards to promote context-sensitive, human rights-based law, policy, and practice relating to disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation. Dr. Scotts’ primary area of expertise concerns migration and displacement in the context of disasters and climate change, on which he published a monograph entitled 'Climate Change, Disasters and the Refugee Convention' (2020), an edited volume entitled 'Climate Change, Disasters and Internal Displacement in Asia and the Pacific: A Human Rights-Based Approach' (2021), and a range of book chapters and academic articles in, amongst others, the International Journal of Refugee Law, the Nordic Journal of International Law and the Yearbook of International Disaster Law. The edited volume was a major output of a regional thematic study he coordinated as part of RWI’s Asia-Pacific programme on human rights and sustainable development. Dr. Scott works on the role of local authorities in addressing climate- and disaster-related migration and displacement and how human rights law can contribute to building resilience to pandemic risk. He holds a PhD in Public International Law from Lund University (2018) and an MA in Social Anthropology of Development from SOAS (1998). He practiced immigration and asylum law before entering academia. He is a member of the advisory committee of the Platform on Disaster Displacement, a member of the editorial board of the Yearbook of International Disaster Law, and a founding member of the Nordic Network on Climate-Related Displacement and Mobility. At Lund University, he convenes the LLM course on human rights law, the environment, and climate change and lectures on international refugee and human rights law at the Faculty of Law. He also lectures on the M.Sc. programme in Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation at the Department of Risk Management and Societal Safety.
