Description

10 Years of the Nansen Initiative Protection Agenda (NIPA +10): Reflections from the frontlines of the Envoy of the Chair of the Platform on Disaster Displacement

In October 2015, 109 states endorsed the Agenda for the Protection of Cross-Border Displaced Persons in the Context of Disasters and Climate Change ('Nansen Agenda'), providing a toolbox of concrete policy options and proposing a series of recommendations for future work.

The agenda was the result of the Nansen Initiative, a state-led process to address the protection needs of people displaced across borders due to disasters and climate change.

The Platform on Disaster Displacement (PDD) was established in 2016 to carry on the work of the Nansen Initiative and help put its recommendations into practice.

In this podcast, Envoy of the Chair of the Platform on Disaster Displacement, Professor Walter Kälin, who was formerly Envoy of the Nansen Initiative, chats with Professor Jane McAdam AO about the major advances, and enduring challenges, in protection for people displaced in the context of disasters and climate change.
