IDRC Research Chair, Prof. Paula Banerjee, publishes a ‘Scoping study on promoting labour market reintegration in the context of climate mobility in Pacific Island countries’. This study contributes to the implementation of the Pacific Regional Framework on Climate Mobility, which advocates for proactive, humane, and sustainable solutions that uphold the dignity and resilience of Pacific communities in the face of climate-induced mobility.
The report was prepared for the International Labour Organization (ILO) by Dr Paula Banerjee and Katarina Atalifo, with technical review by Nilim Baruah, ILO Senior Specialist on Labour Migration in the Decent Work Technical Support Team in Bangkok. This report has been produced under the Pacific Climate Change, Migration and Human Security (PCCMHS) – Phase II programme.
