                        FOREWORD

  This issue is dedicated to an unusual subject and scope for
The Washington Journal of Environmental Law & Policy.
Instead of our customary focus on the Pacific Northwest, this
book considers issues of international environmental justice.
The articles published herein arose out of a symposium
sponsored by the Journal at the University of Washington,
titled Climate-Migration: Food Security, Land Tenure and
Gender. The purpose of the symposium was to encourage the
interdisciplinary discourse on the human and environmental
impacts of climate change worldwide, specifically focusing on
disproportionately affected groups. The book features unique
articles from authors personally qualified to speak to these
issues-many come from the affected regions themselves. The
Washington Journal of Environmental Law & Policy is proud
to present articles by Sumudu Atapattu, Sara Curran, Deng
Haifeng, and Medhanit Adamu.
  The 2013-2014 Editorial Board would like to thank the
University of Washington, Professor Dongsheng Zang, and all
the speakers who made the symposium possible.

Editorial Board.
