Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between environmental governance and weather-related disaster displacements. Using a panel dataset of 92 countries from 2010 to 2020, Granger non-causality tests reveal a strong bidirectional relationship between environmental governance and disaster displacement. The relationship is primarily driven by governance readiness in the higher-income group, while both governance and economic readiness are crucial in the middle-income group. All three readiness components are significant in the lower-income group, highlighting the need for comprehensive disaster management strategies. These findings underscore the importance of effective environmental governance for climate change adaptation.
