An essential step for advancing risk reduction measures at the local level is to define mobility-based indicators of vulnerability and resilience that can contribute to measuring and reducing human and economic losses resulting from disasters.

FMR 45 On policies of hospitality and hostility in Argentina

Examination of migration histories and current politics in Kenya, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Ethiopia and Ghana sheds light on how rights are articulated for groups and individuals displaced in a context of environmental stress and climate change.

FMR 45 Regionalism: a strategy for dealing with crisis migration

Regional solutions are becoming a strategic tool in dealing with the lack of globally agreed protection for crisis migrants.

FMR 45 Nuclear disasters and displacement

The lessons of the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011 seem to be the same as those from Chernobyl 25 years earlier, despite the different political settings.

FMR 45 New Orleans: a lesson in post-disaster resilience

Both natural and man-made crises are considered by many to be prime environments for trafficking in persons. However, the evidence for this is thin.

As border security increases and borders become less permeable, cross-border migration is becoming increasingly difficult, selective and dangerous.

FMR 45 The challenge of mixed migration by sea

While ‘boat people’ are often fleeing a situation of crisis, they share their mode of travel with many types of migrants.

FMR 45 Forcing migration of globalised citizens

Today’s constant flows of persons and information across frontiers mean that, when an emergency occurs, the international community feels it has to get involved not only out of solidarity but because its citizens could be in danger.

FMR 45 Aspects of crisis migration in Algeria

Movements of migrants are only partially covered by international instruments and while the Algerian authorities certainly have opportunities to protect this stream of people, no agreements (bilateral or multilateral) are in force to do so.

FMR 45 Humanitarian border management

Humanitarian border management is one of the tools that can supplement the humanitarian response for migrants caught in a crisis situation.

FMR 45 Non-citizens caught up in situations of conflict, violence and disaster

When non-citizens are caught up in humanitarian crises, they can be as vulnerable to displacement, and suffer its consequences as acutely, as citizens.

FMR 45 Questioning ‘drought displacement’: environment, politics and migration in Somalia

The role of the recent drought in producing migration cannot be understood in isolation from human practices and past and concurrent political processes.

FMR 45 Health crises and migration

Individual and collective responses to health crises contribute to an orderly public health response that most times precludes the need for large-scale displacements.

FMR 45 Rising waters, displaced lives
