It outlines the study’s research questions, methodological approach, and ethical considerations, and describes the participant and data collection framework. The document presents perceptions of climate change and environmental degradation, identifies vulnerable areas and groups, analyzes hazard impacts, and explains mobility patterns. It concludes with evidence-based recommendations to strengthen coping and adaptation measures.","| \u003Cbr>Authorized\u003Cbr> |\n| --- |\n| ic Disclosure\u003Cbr> |\n| Pub l |\n| sure Authorized\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr> |\n| Pub l ic Disclo\u003Cbr> |\n| thorized\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Climate Change and Human Mobility in the Eastern Caribbean: A Case Study in |\n| Disc losure Au\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Dominica\u003Cbr>Background Note |\n| Public\u003Cbr> |\n\nClimate Change and Human Mobility in the Eastern Caribbean: A Case Study in Dominica Stephen Adaawen, PhD  \nApril 2024  \nTable of Contents  \nAcknowledgements....................................................................................................................................... 1  \nAbbreviations and Acronyms ........................................................................................................................ 2  \nGlossary ......................................................................................................................................................... 3  \nExecutive Summary ...................................................................................................................................... 5  \n1.
