The DR shows evidence of significant human mobility flows of (i) internal migration, mainly rural to urban; and (ii) international cross-border migration, especially from Haiti. Given this context, the DR is an important place to study migration induced by the impacts of climate change and natural degradation. In this report, climate migration refers to migration that can be attributed largely to the slow-onset impacts of climate change on livelihoods through natural degradation such us shifts in water availability, crop productivity, ecosystem productivity, or to factors such as sea-level rise. This note builds upon previous studies undertaken regarding climate migration in the DR, and combines a quantitative modeling approach with a qualitative case study.en-USCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOCLIMATE ACTIONSDG 13MIGRATIONENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENTMIGRATION POLICIES AND JOBSLIFE ON LANDSDG 15ReportWorld Bank10.1596/41473
