MATIJASEVIC MOSTAJO, Jack. THE VICIOUS CIRCLE OF THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON RURAL MIGRANT POPULATIONS IN THE BOLIVIAN ALTIPLANO. Luna Azul [online]. 2014, n.38, pp.11-29. ISSN 1909-2474.

The objective of the present article in reflection is seeing the impact of climate change has influenced in a massive migration field-city and how this migration at the same time, influencing climate change. Methodologically he worked reviewing the conclusions carried out studies on the impact of climate change on Agriculture contrasted with the systematization of experiences of community development projects in water and sanitation in peri-urban areas. As result of this has been found that migration before storms, are becoming definitive, encouraged by economic improvements, but at the same time these peri-urban settlements disordered and unplanned are sources of CO₂ that contribute to global warming and thus to climate change. It is concluded that the effects of climate change will encourage increasingly definitive migration field-city and this effect translates in a vicious cycle: migration product of climatic changes, disorderly urbanization contributing to climate change which, in turn, is cause of migration. To avoid this phenomenon, it is recommended to apply strategies of adaptation to climate change as the integral management of water resources, integrated watershed management and further study of adaptation of crops to climate variability.
