Our Vision
Empower Frontline Communities
The GCCM aims to enable positive adaptation journeys for people and communities at the frontline of the climate crisis, whether they are staying, moving or decide to relocate.
Our Approach
We advance our goals through four overarching strategies, acting as a knowledge builder, partnerships broker, and integrator across sectors, stakeholders, and levels of governance, as well as an accelerator in global & regional processes.
Partnership is at the heart of our model
The Global Centre for Climate Mobility is a unique partnership enabled by UN Member States and supported by relevant agencies of the UN system, the World Bank, and respective regional intergovernmental organizations to address climate-forced migration and displacement.
Working with partners across the United Nations system, regional intergovernmental organisations and development finance institutions, the Global Centre for Climate Mobility aims to generate political momentum for cooperative and comprehensive approaches and solutions to addressing climate mobility.
By forging common policy agendas at regional, national, local and global levels, the GCCM seeks to mobilise collective efforts by governments, international partners, and relevant stakeholders to increase investment in people-centred and community-based adaptation, climate-resilient development, and safe migration responses.
