INTRODUCTION
International Hybrid Law is a legal research tool which allows to examine a climate change from three primary perspectives: environmental law, human rights and refugee law. It begins with environmental degradation, leading to violation of number of human rights and inevitably to human mobility.

HISTORY
The concept was elaborated in 2007, when Dr. Cosmin I. Corendea extended his research regarding the impact of climate change in the international law, focusing on specific cases like one in Pacific islands, a legal necessity emerged to simplify the analysis of these cases, focusing on the core of the problem and not necessary on the form.

CONCEPT
Hybrid law creates an interrelation between three branches of international law – environmental law, human rights and refugee or migration law. Under Hybrid Law, one cannot address environmental degradation - including climate change - without taking into account human rights and/ or migration. This analysis is applicable to all environmental degradation events and disasters, regardless of whether the process is slow (such as sea-level rise, salinization, etc.) or rapid (flooding, extreme storms, etc.).
