dc.description.abstractThe presentation argues for context specific assessments at the ground level regarding climate change and forced migration. Context specific assessment should be a prerequisite before making any estimates about the people and their priorities. Specific to the Maldives, this research shows that people do not want to leave, nor do they consider migration as an adaptive response. They love island life. Researchers see a need for more innovative research approaches and methodologies, including ethnographic research.en
