Une intervention de François Gemenne au cours de la session "Climate change, development and security" de la conférence internationale "Changing Nature of Forced Migration: Vulnerabilities and Responsibilities in South and South-East Asia" organisée par l'Asian University for Women.
Présentation de la conférence [en anglais] :
The nature of forced migration has been changing as a result of protracted conflicts, unequal burden sharing, climate change and natural disasters, along with shifting policies regarding immigration, asylum, work, development, and globalization. Moreover, these processes are also blurring the line between forced migration and economic migration. The processes that produce refugees, internally displaced peoples (IDPs), trafficked peoples and migrant workers tend to be linked and interconnected. Although they fall under different jurisdictions under domestic and international laws, their vulnerabilities overlap as a result of being "temporary", "illegal", or "illegitimate". Moreover, these kinds of movements tend to challenge the legal and normative notions about state responsibility, international relations, citizenship and identity.
