Every year millions of people are forced to flee from their homes, and in many cases their countries, because of floods, windstorms, earthquakes, droughts or other ravages of climate changes. Yet this phenomena - that is likely to increase - is almost neglected by international law and politicians in power. There is an urgent need to address this challenge and guarantee adequate protection for affected people - these are the main conclusions of the seminar organised today by the S&D Group.
