The role of  (UNHCR) in climate change mitigation and adaptation UNHCR has shown its willingness, to participate in the response to displacement in the context of climate change .  as UNHCR has seen that climate change is a risk multiplier or a threat multiplier for other drivers of displacement.  Access to livelihoods puts pressures on education and health services, often exacerbated by pressures on governance and access to resources in general.  UNHCR also expressed concern that when populations are forced to move due to climate change and conflict, they are very rare to return.  In the past, return was a permanent solution once the conflict ended, but now with climate change and environmental degradation, many people do not find a place to return to. This changes the way UNHCR should look at durable solutions and work with them in the future, as UNHCR has played an important role In supporting the development of international, regional, national and non-na...

Believing in the serious negative effects of climate change on humanity, the United Nations General Assembly in 1988 discussed the issue of climate change and issued its decision to form the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). and this team was formed in cooperation with the Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP)to carry out scientific research and evaluate information related to climate change from the scientific, technical, economic and social aspects. and this team concluded in 1990 that there are technically feasible and cost-effective measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions through national measures and Regional meetings and agreements followed, with the aim of limiting the phenomenon of climate change. The Intergovernmental Authority on Climate Change has proposed a wide range of options for adaptation to climate change, as it developed an appropriate plan to adapt to the catastrophic effects of climate change on all sect...

Efforts to reduce or mitigate the catastrophic effects of climate change and adapt to it.

In light of rapid global warming, extreme weather conditions have become. Heavy rains, droughts, heat waves, and tropical storms) are more difficult to predict, more intense and frequent, and increase the risk of more rapid and slow-onset hazards, including floods, landslides, and erosion. The sea leads to increased coastal flooding, soil salinization, and the risk of permanent flooding in low-lying areas. It was stated in the 2010 Development Report issued by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (Action is now necessary, otherwise the possible options will disappear and costs will increase with the world’s approach to developm...
