Reviewing climate-related human mobility in Latin American and Caribbean’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Action Plans (NAPs)

July 9, 2024

The inclusion of human mobility priorities in Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Action Plans (NAPs) can potentially improve adaptation, resilience and measures to address climate-induced loss and damage. This assessment reviews the extent to which human mobility features in NDCs and NAPs in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). It finds that not only does the region feature more NDCs and NAPs than other parts of the globe, but they generally reveal a higher engagement with categories such as displacement, migration and relocation.
