The Executive Committee of the Warsaw International Mechanism for Loss and Damage, the body under the UNFCCC responsible for implementation of approaches to address loss and damage from climate change impacts, is currently undertaking a revision of its technical paper on non-economic losses.
In recognition of the growing awareness around loss and damage as a result of climate change, Climate Refugees has prepared four case studies, which we hope will be helpful to the WIM ExCom as they update the technical paper for the first time since 2013. Climate Refugees’ submissions, available in a single PDF below, are based on our visits to and reporting on Kenya’s Rift Valley.
