Abstract


change. The refugees are not categorized as refugees under the Refugees Convention 1951 since they are not caused by persecution.

The paper is a normative juridical research by employing conceptual and comparative approach. The paper is analysed qualitatively and presented descriptively. The results show that: First,  there is a legal vacuum of the protection of climate change refugees ; second, it is necessary to regulate a legal protection to the climate change refugees since they become the victims of climate change.
