Abstract
CORONA JIMENEZ, Miguel Ángel and ORTIZ ESPEJEL, Benjamín. Public policies of regional development for climate change by 2020 in contexts of marginalization and international migration. Estud. soc. Rev. aliment. contemp. desarro. reg. [online]. 2019, vol.29, n.53, e19703. ISSN 2395-9169. https://doi.org/10.24836/es.v29i53.703.
Objective:
This paper presents the results of a research that analyzed the causes of migration and social deficiencies in the region of Puebla, state of Mexico. The period goes from 2000 to 2010, while focusing on climate change projections for 2020. Public Policy that promotes sustainable regional development is recommended.
Methodology:
In conjunction, statistical analysis and spatial analysis are applied because this unified method allows to locate regions with specific social issues, and predict future climate variations at the same places.
Results:
Migration is expanding all over Puebla, social deficiencies levels are different in every municipality. Likewise, the impact of climate change is dissimilar throughout the region.
Limitations:
The scope of the research is Puebla. Nevertheless, it applies a new method that correlates social problems with climate change.
Conclusion:
In 2020, the geographic zones with the highest degree of international migration and medium social deficiencies will suffer the biggest impact from climate change; therefore, it is concluded that social behavior of the population movement will be greatly influenced by climate variations in the next decade.
