DS Director, Scott Leckie has published a book on the life of his grandfather.

He wanted to share this with you - If you're interested, you can find the book at this link: https://books2read.com/u/4AeRXk

From Scott:
"This isn't the first time America has been through a very dark and gloomy political era. One of those was the time of Hoover, McCarthy and the Red Scare. As it turns out, much to chagrin my grandfather Arthur Bernard Leckie played a central role in creating a darker America. To come to terms with it I wrote Shrewd Little Sleuth. What I discovered in writing this biography will require more than a little familial karmic cleansing..."

Displacement Solutions director Scott Leckie, with his newly released book, out now via amazon.com

This book explores various contemporary aspects of the growing field of housing, land and property (HLP) rights. HLP rights have undergone a major transformation in recent decades, but much remains to be done to bring their promise to the billions of people who have yet to access them.

This work presents several innovative ways by which the entire field of HLP rights can be strengthened in support of those to whom they are promised by human rights laws. It outlines the author’s suggestions for creating a new World Restitution Agency, expanding our understanding of the term ‘internationally wrongful act’ to HLP crimes, the links between mine action and HLP rights in post-conflict societies and the need to include HLP issues in peace agreements.

The book concludes with several chapters that outline suggestions for better addressing climate displacement, including the need for national climate land banks, the role of the courts and how to redistribute global wealth towards rehousing the millions set to be displaced from their homes and lands due to the effects of climate change.

The volume will be essential reading for academics, researchers and policymakers working in the areas of international human rights law, housing, land and property issues, humanitarian issues and climate change.

Despite the worsening climate displacement crisis, as of late-2023 only 19 cases out of more than 2,500 climate cases that have been considered by the world's courts deal in any way with climate displacement.

This needs to change.

The hundreds of millions of people threatened by climate displacement need legal and judicial protection and the courts should help!

This new DS report outlines the nature of each of the 19 cases and articulates the immense judicial ground that still needs to be covered to fully protect the rights of climate displaced persons and communities.

Throughout the world, rural areas in many countries are facing the loss of populations, investment and economic vitality. As a result, countless villages have been abandoned, homes by the million have fallen into disrepair and local economies have withered. Rural towns and villages could stand a better chance of survival by actively transforming into Climate Displacement Havens. By actively welcoming people who have been displaced because of climate change, dying villages win, national governments win and most importantly climate displaced populations win.

Governments in a range of locales in the United States have already started buying back people's homes in areas that are facing ever-worsening flooding and other problems generated by the effects of climate change.

Texas and California have already starting these processes and many others will necessarily follow. Without such programmes, people will end of homeless, landless and without assets. Housing buy back programmes can work.
