The loss of land not only displaces diredirectly but also leads to conflicts over contriggering habible areas, further triggering migration.

Tuvalu: Thee Fight for Legal Existence
Tuvalu, with a maximum elevation of just 4.6 meters, is one of the most climate-threatened countries. The government has sought to raise international awareness and secure commitments to reduce emissions. It has also explored the possibility of legal and political mechanisms for statehood even after physical territory becomes uninhabitable. Some families have already migrated to New Zealand under the Pacific Access Category, a visa program that allows a limited number of Tuvaluans to relocate. However, the majority remain, hoping that adaptation measures—such as building seawalls and reclaiming land—will buy them time.
