Pacific Climate Change Migration Human Security (PCCM-HS) Programme Phase II 2023-2026
PCCMHS programme Phase II builds upon the outcomes of Phase I, implemented from 2019-2022, while drawing on its lessons learned and experiences to address some of the related challenges to climate mobility in the Pacific. The joint-programme is implemented by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) as the lead, together with ESCAP, the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Office for the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) and the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat (PIFS), and the Platform on Disaster Displacement (PDD).
During its implementation, Phase II of the programme will contribute to strengthend resilience and adaptive capacity of Pacific Islanders in the context of climate change and disasters, ensuring that migration and relocation remains a choice, and disploacement is averted, minimized and addressed. The programme will support the following outcomes:
Outcome 1: Governments cooperate at the (Pacific) regional and sub-regional level to manage climate mobility.
Outcome 2: Pacific Governments develop and implement national policies to address climate mobility.
Outcome 3: Pacific civil society actors, worker and employer organizations, and communities actively engage in national, regional and global processes to manage climate mobility.
