| description |
This portfolio review examines the
design features of World Bank interventions operating at the
intersection of climate-migration-development with the aim
to draw actionable insights and recommendations. The review
identifies 165 projects against a set of mobility-related
keywords with commitments totaling to US$197.5 billion for
the period from 2006 to 2019 classified into two thematic
categories: migration-focused projects that cater
specifically to migrants, refugees, displaced, or the
host-communities as their beneficiaries; and development
focused projects which have a broader remit but include
within its components a focus on mobility. The
Inter-Governmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) risk
framework is used to assess how project interventions can be
effective and deliver durable outcomes—through
cross-learning across the two categories of projects.
Climate change is emerging as a potent driver of
mobility-immobility dynamics, and it carries wider
development implications that cannot be ignored. The World
Bank flagship report Groundswell: Preparing for Internal
Climate Migration (Rigaud et al. 2018) projects that by 2050
just over 143 million people across Sub-Saharan Africa,
Latin America and South Asia could be forced to move within
their own countries to escape the slow onset impacts of
climate change. The review underscores the wealth of good
practice that can inform projects to innovate and devise
more integrative solution by sharpening attention to
underlying causes of migration along with immediate and
urgent needs of the stakeholders; and where possible to
design interventions that are proactive in anticipating
future climate risks from slow- and rapid-onset climate impacts. |
