Forced Migration is also expected to increase with the growing concerns of climate change. The IPCC Working Group II in its assessment report in 2014, explicitly recognized that “Climate change over the 21st Century is projected to increase displacement of people” and “can indirectly increase risks of violent conflicts in the form of civil war and inter¬group violence by amplifying well¬documented drivers of these conflicts such as poverty and economic shocks”TISS in partnership with IFRC proposes an international roundtable conference to engage with questions such as those posed above to facilitate discourse amongst the participants on the understanding of forced migration and displacement in the context of both natural as well as manmade crises.
