Invisible citizens- the barriers and durable solutions for internally displaced people due to climate diversity

Abstract

This article, "Invisible Citizens: Barriers and Durable Solutions for Climate-Induced Displacement," explores the significant challenges faced by individuals displaced by climate change and presents strategies for overcoming these obstacles. Invisible citizens refer to displaced people who are often overlooked or marginalized in discussions about climate-induced displacement. The article examines various solutions, such as Establishing legal frameworks that recognize and protect the rights of climate-displaced individuals, implementing targeted policies and integration programs that facilitate social and economic, and improving access to resources like education, healthcare, and employment opportunities is essential for their stability and growth. Involving displaced individuals in the planning and implementation of solutions can lead to more effective and equitable outcomes.
Another area of discussion is national and international regulations which address their rights and protections in various ways. While International and national laws provide important frameworks for the protection of IDPs, their effective implementation is often hindered by issues such as the non-building nature of international guidelines, inconsistent national legal frameworks, resource limitations, and political instability. Addressing these challenges requires improved coordination between stakeholders, increased resources, and stronger political commitment to ensure that IDPs receive the protection and support they need.
In summary, addressing the challenges faced by climate-induced IDPs requires a multifaceted approach that integrates legal, financial, and policy dimensions. By recognizing and addressing the unique needs of these "invisible citizens," stakeholders can develop more effective and durable solutions to support displaced communities in adapting to and mitigating the impacts of climate change.
