Description
Rights groups have demanded that Bangladesh should initiate necessary research and assessment as homework to strengthen the issue of climate migrants in the upcoming international climate negotiations. They also raised the demand of redefining the term ‘UN Refugee’ in view of present increasing nature of climate-forced migrants worldwide, especially in Bangladesh. The demands were raised at a seminar titled ‘Climate Induced Migrants: Responsibilities in National and International Level’ held at the National Press Club. Six rights groups and civil society networks BAPA, BIPNetCCBD, CCDF, CSRL, CLEAN and EquityBD organised the seminar, joined by Environment and Forests Minister Hasan Mahmud.
