Abstract
Climate change is forcing mass displacement and migration in the Middle East and North Africa on a scale domestic and international legal regimes are unprepared to handle. This Note provides an overview of the various ways climate migration detrimentally impacts human health in the Middle East and North Africa, examining the issue from both pre- and post-displacement perspectives. It surveys, inter alia, the shortcomings of current domestic and international policies as they relate to severe weather; drought, citizenship, and political instability, and uses the right to health to identify the legal changes that would provide the greatest benefit to public health.
