Abstract
The paper analyses the relationship between internal displacement and climate in the Republic of Serbia in the last fifteen years. The results show that weather related hazards have an impact on internal displacement, influencing very specific characteristics of population mobility. It was found that floods have by far the greatest impact on the intensity of population mobility. As it is influenced by the climate conditions, this type of population mobility stands out from other types of migration in Serbia. Namely, internal displacements influenced by weather related hazards are primarily temporary and depends solely on the characteristics of the climate, and requires urgent and specific governmental support. For this reason, studies connecting internal displacement and climate require a different approach.
