dc.description.abstract Climate change poses new risks to human security and causes a new context for migration (CARE, 2009). Sang and Long (2012) showed that the largest source of migrants in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) originates from Mekong Delta while (Dun, 2009) demonstrated that environmental issues are important factors promoting migration in this region. To further study the impact of climate change on migration, the study aims at investigating a correlation between the environmental impacts of climate change and migration decisions. Based on 400 interviews with local people in Ben Tre and Dong Thap provinces (highest sources of immigrants in HCMC), statistical analysis (reliability analysis – Cronbach’s alpha and factor analysis – EFA) proves that (1) the impacts of climate change on production activities; (2) the impacts of climate change on the quality of life; (3) the impacts of climate change on environmental quality are factors which have contributed to migration decisions of those suffering from climate change. Correlation analysis results showed that there is a correlation between the impacts of climate change and migration decisions (p <0.05), and the decision to migrate directly proportional to the increase in the influence of climate change.
