dc.descriptionMeeting: National Workshop on Migration and Global Environmental Change in India, 4-5th March 2014, New Delhien
dc.description.abstractThe presentation covers seasonal and temporary migration patterns, often involving 100 million residents, predominantly Scheduled Tribes and Scheduled Castes, and landless rural households. Coastal states are more urbanized, with India’s prominent mega cities, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai, located in regions of “in-migration.” Policy recommendations are made towards recognition of migration as a means of adaptation to climate change, as well as the right to freedom of movement. Urban planning ought to reflect these considerations, and ensure migrants’ inclusion in social security programmes. Proof of identity and proof and domicile need to be eased.en
