As rising temperatures continue to change human and natural systems,
displacement will affect increasing numbers of people around the world.
The Climate Displacement Planning Initiative's mission is to develop research, guides, tools, and communities of practice to help protect those most at risk moving within and to Canada. CDPI envisions a world where displaced people experience safe, dignified, and just mobility.
By recognizing that urban areas play host to many people displaced by climate
change, we aim to mobilize cities and urban change-makers to explore how
we can integrate the emerging environmental, social, and economic
challenges into future urban resilience planning.
