New Home Plan: Right EDP's Rights

Abstract

The well-founded concerns that the number of EDP fleeing untenable environmental conditions may grow exponentially as the world experiences the effects of climate change makes it highly urgent to develop strategies to prevent environmental migration and the conflict which may be related to it. This article looks at this issue from both aspects of human rights and culture preservation with New Home Plan (NHP), a sophisticated and generalized model established. Based on NASA data, this article forecasts the sea level before 2100 and predicts the total population and cultural value affected by the crisis while establishing models to characterize the dynamic impact of the rising sea level crisis on these countries. Containing Timing of Intervention Model (TIM) and Optimal Destination Matching (ODM), NHP applies indicators in economy, culture, geography and environmental contribution to select destination whilst attaching importance to human rights and timeliness. To check the robustness of the model, the authors conducted a simulation comparing situations with NHP and without it, the result of which indicates the exercise of NHP can better preserve culture and higher relocation efficiency.
