Environmental and Disaster Displacement Policy
Organisational Cooperation between the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the International Organisation for Migration
Introduction
This book explores the involvement of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in the issue area of environmental and disaster displacement.
Historical Involvement and Response
In considering both agencies’ historical involvement, their response to Typhoon Haiyan, and first-hand accounts from both agency staff and other experts, this book outlines how inter-agency involvement in the issue area has been categorised by (real or imagined) divisions; of agency structures and mandates, activities, and even personalities.
Convergence and Tensions
While historically inherited differences exist, environmental and disaster displacement has led to a converging of agency roles and amplified tensions, at a time when cooperation is most critical.
