Climate change-related displacement and the determination of refugee status under the 1951 Refugee ConventionSritharan, Elijah SriroshanClimate change and climate-driven migration are two of the defining challenges of the twenty-first century, and there is no legal framework for protecting those displaced across national borders for ... climate-related reasons. The 1951 Refugee Convention hardly applies to human mobility in the context of climate change. This paper was written in the hopes of initiating a discussion concerning an alternative perspective through which persons fleeing natural disasters linked to climate change may satisfy the eligibility conditions for recognition of refugee status. Expanding the definition of refugee as defined in the Convention by including the notion of vulnerability to climate disasters that are caused by the underlying socio-economic conditions in the claimant’s home country and the role of discrimination in causing differential exposure to the climate-related disasters in legal definitions might open the door for the availability of refugee status for persons fleeing in the context of climate change. This paper proposes the adoption of a reformed human rights-based interpretation, particularly with regard to the individual nature of refugee status determination. Recalibrating the Convention to facilitate climate-induced migration could reduce political tension and social unrest in receiving countries.Vir: Lexonomica : revija za pravo in ekonomijo = journal of law and economics. - ISSN 1855-7147 (Vol. 15, no. 1, Jun. 2023, str. 1-32)Vrsta gradiva - članek, sestavni delLeto - 2023Jezik - angleškiCOBISS.SI-ID - 163142403
