Abstract

Climate change is increasingly affecting how, where and why people move. There is a direct link between climate change and changes in social dynamics, but social mobility is not direct and predictable, its causes depend on many factors, but it is already clear that climate change exacerbates the conflict situation in locations, this has led to the loss of livelihoods and other factors causing short- and long-term displacement both within and outside national borders. The article is aimed to consider the participation of international banks in financing projects and programs on climate migration. The research methodology is based on the analysis of domestic and foreign sources (reports, documents, programs and projects) on climate migration.The results confirm the experts' view that international banks are reluctant to invest in climate migration management, mainly by financing climate change mitigation. The main conclusions are that the intensification of climate disasters leads to an intensity of migratory movement, the global community should join forces not so much to deal with climate disasters as to help climate migrants by financing projects to improve their living conditions and adapt to host communities.
