Overview
A brief exploration of the guiding concepts of the conference Migration Rural Livelihoods Natural Resource Management
How do these three concepts interact with economic, social and environmental frameworks?
What guidance does this interaction give us for considering migration as an adaptation to climate change?

Livelihoods, migration and adaptation to climate change
How well do the following concepts fit together? Livelihoods Migration Adaptation to climate change
Let’s look at them two at a time.
![Page 12: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Livelihoods, migration and adaptation to climate change
Migration and livelihoods Migration is a part of many livelihood
strategies. Many livelihood systems involve multiple
activities in different locations, to optimize resource use and to reduce risk.
This could be called mobility as well as migration.
Patterns of mobility around the world are often very old, and structured in culturally distinctive ways. ▪ E.g., Pacific Islands, High Arctic, indigenous Andes
![Page 13: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Livelihoods, migration and adaptation to climate change
Livelihoods are an important part of adaptation to climate change.
Climate change impacts livelihoods through: Gradual shifts in climate, water availability, sea
level, vegetation and human health which alter productivity (trends)
Increased hazards (extreme events) Changing livelihoods can constitute
adaptations to climate change, by allowing people access to resources to complement the ones that are impacted.
![Page 14: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Livelihoods, migration and adaptation to climate change
If migration can be part of livelihoods And livelihoods can be a part of
adaptation to climate change, Can migration be part of adaptation to
climate change?
![Page 15: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Can migration be part of adaptation to climate change?
Reasons for saying yes: Migration can allow access to resources to
complement the ones that are lost because of changing trends or extreme events.
Many people are used to mobility. Migration can be coordinated at a regional,
national or international scale.
![Page 16: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Can migration be part of adaptation to climate change?
Reasons for saying maybe, or no: Practicality: There are many difficulties to
establishing new forms of migration. Scale: Migration seems more legitimate at
smaller scales than larger scales.Household
Community
Region or ethnic group
Nation World
Many examples
Difficulties with relocation after dam construction
Concerns of Inuit, other indigenous peoples and coastal regions
Concerns of island nations (Tuvalu, Maldives)
Impossibility
![Page 17: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Can migration be part of adaptation to climate change?
Reasons for saying maybe, or no: Valuation: Economic resources are hard to
replace; extra-economic ones are even more difficult.
Control: Migration is widely understood as a voluntary process, but adaptation will require planning and coordination. It is difficult enough to make effective evacuation plans for hurricanes.
![Page 18: Ben Orlove Columbia University Migration, Rural Livelihoods and Natural Resource Management PRISMA workshop February 2011.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56649ea05503460f94ba3146/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Climate change example:Phinaya, Cusco, Peru
Indigenous pastoralists Livelihoods based on alpaca herds, which provide meat, wool,
hides and fuel (dung) Livelihoods include mobility for trading (using the animals) and
for wage labor Climate change: rapid glacier retreat in the last 40 years.
Reduced water flow Reduced pasture
Residents accept migration at individual and household level, but not at level of community or ethnic group. They raise objections of practicality, scale, valuation and control. They have strong attachments to their community and region.

Glacier retreat in Cusco
Changes in the Qori Kalis Glacier, Quelccaya Ice Cap, Peru, are shown between 1978 (top) and 2002. The glacier retreat during this time was 1.1 km.

Glacier retreat, community, and issues (scale, valuation, control)
The mountains and glaciers provide the water which maintains the pastures.
The pastures support the herds which support the herders.
Individuals and households can move elsewhere, but they care for the herds and mountains for cultural as well as economic reasons.
When some individuals and households move, the community survives. When all move, it does not survive.

Livelihoods, migration and adaptation to climate change
How well do the following concepts fit together? Livelihoods Migration Adaptation to climate change
For the herders in Cusco, who have experienced climate change for over a generation, they do not fit together well.
Other groups may face similar difficulties.
