Abstract
Intra-Pacific Island migration has been largely overlooked in climate change-related migration studies, particularly the role of Pacific Islands as receiving countries of climate change-related migrants.
This pioneering study investigates to what extent local Fijians are willing to accept climate change-related migrants in Fiji, in comparison to other categories of migrants, and what attributes of migrants affects their acceptance.
While Fijians are supportive to accommodate climate change-related Pacific Islander immigrants, anticipating (perceived) resource conflicts are crucial to consider in policies addressing climate change-related migration.
