Distance learning will enable climate refugees to avoid falling into the social risk trap

Abstract

This chapter describes how distance learning can help climate refugees protect themselves against the social risk that results from restrictions on their right to education. This documentary analysis is predominantly theoretical, and its general aim it to present a documentary corpus to facilitate classification of climate refugees in terms of their ICT competence. The specific aim is to provide keys for the design of educational programs that can closely match the competences of the individual refugee. This is the novelty and originality of this chapter. The refugee has traditionally been treated as an element within a group to which common educational methodologies are applied. This chapter treats each refugee as an individual according to their ICT skills, so each one will require a specific type of education.
