Analysis of Climate Migration in Niger: An Adaptation Strategy in Facing the Realities of the Context
Elhadji Idi ISSOUFOU ADAMOU, Emrah AKBAŞ Abstract: This research aims to analyze climate migration as an adaptation strategy to the effects of climate change in the face of the realities of the context in Niger. Recurring climatic hazards degrade the natural resources (a strong link in the economy) necessary for the survival of the population. These climatic events amplify the socio-economic vulnerabilities of populations. This is why the development of adoption strategies at the national and local level are very necessary in order to make its impacts. This is why the development of adoption strategies at the national and local levels are very necessary in order to cope with climate change impacts. Indeed, in a context of rainfall deficit, degradation of agricultural and pastoral lands as well as other climatic manifestations, an agro-pastoral population 85% is forced to migrate in order to ensure its survival. This climate migration made in order to mobilize additional resources reduces the vulnerability of the population to the effects of climate change. The financial resources and social capital capitalized during this migratory experience allow the affected populations to emancipate themselves on a socio-economic level. Therefore, according to the results of this study, it was concluded that migration as the main strategy for adapting to the effects of climate change is a response and a very widespread practice in Niger.
