Abstract:
This research focuses on the economic, demographic and environmental drivers of migration related with the sustainable development in the underdeveloped and developing countries, which are the most vulnerable to the climate change impacts through the panel data analysis. We have studied some countries namely Bangladesh, Netherlands, Morocco, Malaysia, Ethiopia and Bolivia. We have analyzed these countries according to their economic, demographic and environmental indicators related with the determinant of migration, and we tried to indicate that their conditions di er according to all these factors concerning with the climate change impacts. In order to achieve sustainable development by preventing or decreasing environmental migration due to climate change impacts, these countries need to maintain economic, social, political, demographic, and in particular environmental performance. This thesis argues about climate change impacts in the future to the vulnerable countries and its e ects on the migration in these countries. There are some signi cant risks stemming from climate change, which is not under control. When the economic and environmental conditions are considered, we have to regard that climate change will be more destructive for those who are less defendable in terms of all risks and impacts of uncontrolled climate change. In this case, there are some crucial questions required to be responded. What should be the economic and environmental priorities? What are the contributions of these priorities to the vulnerable countries concerning with the climate change e ects? Considering all these, geographic structure and also human population density (how and where population live) of these poor are very signi cant concepts.
