Civil society leaders from more than 100 countries called for action on climate-induced displacement at a summit in Suva, Fiji, this week.
Their declaration urges the international community to uphold the human rights of people compelled to move as a result of global warming impacts.
Climate change should be recognised as a driver of migration in the global compact due to be negotiated by countries in 2018, say the campaign groups, which include Oxfam Pacific, 350.org and Act Alliance.
