DESCRIPTION:In the run-up to COP31\, being held in Tϋrkiye in November 2026\, the Embassy of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh in the Netherlands\, The Hague Humanitarian Studies Centre\, and the International Institute of Social Studies invite you to join a roundtable event examining Avenues of Action on Climate and Displacement.  \nOver the last decade\, weather-related disasters have displaced approximately 250 million people within their own countries. Floods\, storms\, droughts and heatwaves are already uprooting communities. Some people move temporarily and return to their homes and livelihoods\, while others cannot go back and move within countries or across borders in search of safety. \nIt is thus time to make a plan to build resilience for those adapting to climate\, take action in providing support to people migrating across borders and recognising the challenges of climate-related displacement within countries. \nIn this roundtable\, speakers and panellists will consider potential avenues of action to help adapt and prepare for climate-related displacement\, including working with host communities to reduce risks for both newcomers and improving adaptation strategies for existing residents. \nExamples will be explored from Bangladesh and elsewhere. \nSpeakers\nWelcome: Professor Ruard GanzevoortOpens external\, ISS Rector \nScene-setting: Hyeonggeun JiOpens external\, Researcher\, HSC-ISS \nJoint action 1: Paul van de LogtOpens external\, Head of Climate\, Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs \nJoint action 2: Kevin Playford\,Opens external Deputy Head of Mission\, Embassy of Australia in the Netherlands \n\nRoundtable discussion moderated by Professor Thea Hilhorst\, HSC Director and featuringProfessor Joyeeta Gupta\, UvA\nDr Bishawjit Mallik\, University of Utrecht\nJoep Verhagen\, Director Global Centre on Adaptation\nDr Rodrigo Mena\, Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Association\n\nClosing by H.E.
