Impact of climate variability on internal migration in the Philippines during 2005 – 2010 by Weinreb, Alex, Stecklov, Guy, Arslan, Aslihan, Molina, Luis, Grosjean, Godefroy

“…Countries in South-East Asia are among the most vulnerable to climate change, and future climate scenarios predict increases in multiple indicators, including temperatures (average, minimum and maximum), annual precipitation, number of consecutive too wet and dry days, among others. Understanding how these changes may shape human mobility is key to effective policy design to protect livelihoods and establish migration as a choice rather than necessity. …”
