dc.description.abstract | Policies facilitating planned migration could support improved climate adaptation for migrant families, and mitigate their risk of displacement. Future climate projections for Pakistan show an increase in temperature throughout the country and a decrease in rainfall in the monsoon belt, which is mainly arid and semi-arid areas. These changes will directly affect agricultural productivity and increasingly drive people out of rural areas unless alternative economic opportunities are provided in villages. Local governments should enable expanding economic opportunities for women and reduce the risks of male out-migration on the rural economy. | en |
