On the Role of International Governmental Organizations in the Global Response to Adapt to Climate Change-induced Sea-level Rise: Conditioning Factors and Opportunities

The article reflects on the role that International Governmental Organizations (IGOs) should play in the global response to climate change-induced sea-level rise (SLR). Although, over the last decade in particular, many IGOs have begun to incorporate the impact of this global threat into their appro...
