Study on resettlement of climate refugee

研究成果の概要 (和文) : マーシャル諸島とキリバスの大学生や短大生を対象に、海外移住への意思とその理由についてアンケート調査を行った。どちらの国でも海外移住の主な理由として最も多くあがったのはより良い教育であり、次いで仕事、健康、家族であった。気候変動を理由に移住を希望する学生の割合は特にマーシャル諸島で少数であった。米国に在住するマーシャル諸島、ミクロネシア連邦、パラオ出身の移民に対してアンケート調査を行ったところ、彼らの多数は移住前の母国での準備が十分でなく、英語力や学歴が不足しているために低技能の職業にしかつけていなかった。研究成果の概要 (英文) : A survey of university and junior college students in the Marshall Islands and Kiribati was conducted on their intentions to move abroad and the reasons for doing so. In both countries, better education was cited most often as the main reason, followed by work, health and family. The percentage of students who wanted to migrate because of climate change was small, especially in the Marshall Islands.A survey of immigrants from the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, and Palau in the United States found that many of them were poorly prepared in their home countries prior to emigration and were only placed in low-skilled occupations due to a lack of English language skills and education
