Summary

The intensity of climate-related impacts is becoming more evident, and public concern is on the rise all around the globe. The harmful impacts of the environmental crisis could translate into a matter of human survival redefining human mobility patterns. At the same time, the current pandemic is amplifying calls for an alternative future strategy ‘beyond the prism of end-state solutions’.2 Many countries are acutely aware of the potential serious implications of climate-induced migration. The challenges it poses to our legal systems are complex, interrelated, and multidimensional, giving rise to an instability we are not well-equipped to deal with.
