How can law respond to situations when people move across an international border in the context of disasters, climate change and environmental degradation?

Join us for a discussion moderated by Atle Solberg, Head of the Secretariat of the Platform on Disaster Displacement.
Speakers include:
- Jane McAdam, Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law –will present by video and Sanjula Weerasinghe will respond in Q&A.
