Climate change-induced environmental degradation, such as rising sea levels, desertification, and extreme weather events, is the primary driver of climate-induced migration.

Children, elderly, and women are particularly vulnerable to health risks associated with climate-induced migration due to their unique physiological and social vulnerabilities.

Climate-induced migration can lead to increased anxiety and depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse, and other mental health issues due to the loss of home, community, and social support networks.

Climate-induced migration can increase the risk of infectious diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and cholera due to changes in vector distribution and population immunity.

Mitigating the health impacts of climate-induced migration requires a comprehensive approach that includes investing in climate adaptation and resilience, promoting sustainable development, and strengthening health systems.

Managing climate-induced migration to minimize health risks involves providing access to healthcare services, ensuring adequate housing and sanitation, promoting social integration, and addressing the underlying causes of migration.

International cooperation is crucial for addressing the health impacts of climate-induced migration by sharing resources and expertise, developing global policies and strategies, and providing financial assistance to vulnerable countries.

The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015, includes a specific goal to strengthen the ability of countries to deal with the impacts of climate change, including the health impacts.

Governments have the primary responsibility to protect the rights of migrants, provide access to essential services, implement policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and address the underlying causes of climate-induced migration.

Communities can contribute to mitigating the health impacts of climate-induced migration by welcoming and integrating migrants, providing social support networks, advocating for policies that protect migrants' rights, and promoting sustainable development.

Climate-induced displacement can lead to an increased risk of non-communicable diseases, mental health disorders, nutritional deficiencies, and other health issues due to disruptions in healthcare access, food security, and social support networks.

Climate change exacerbates existing health inequalities by disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations, increasing the burden of disease, straining healthcare systems, and undermining social and economic determinants of health.

Climate-resilient healthcare systems play a crucial role in addressing the health impacts of climate-induced migration by providing comprehensive healthcare services, building capacity for disaster response, promoting community engagement, and strengthening surveillance and early warning systems.

Climate change mitigation strategies can contribute to reducing the health impacts of climate-induced migration by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, promoting sustainable development, investing in climate adaptation and resilience, and addressing the underlying causes of migration.

The World Health Organization's Global Health and Climate Change Strategy aims to protect human health from climate change, promote sustainable development, strengthen health systems, and support countries in implementing climate-resilient health policies and programs.
