BOLANOS-GUERRA, Bernardo  e  CALDERON-CONTRERAS, Rafael. Challenges of Resilience to Reducing Environmentally Induced Migration from Central America. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2021, n.76, pp.7-23.  Epub 07-Abr-2021. ISSN 0123-885X.  https://doi.org/10.7440/res76.2021.02.

Resilience is already one of the most important analytical approaches to the study of socio-ecological problems. Forced migration for environmental reasons is one of the main consequences of global environmental change. Socio-ecological resilience identifies factors that would diminish the effects of environmental migration, especially concerning the governance of such issues. We will draw attention to the fact that recent waves of migration have made Central America a hotspot for environmentally induced displacement. In response, international aid geared towards climate change adaptation could reduce the displacement of the inhabitants of the Central American Dry Corridor. However, favored practices, such as Hass avocado cultivation, are controversial in terms of environmental sustainability.

Palavras-chave : Central America; Central American Dry Corridor; global environmental change; migration.
