This research is driven by the phenomenon of the increasing trend of population migration from agricultural and coastal areas due to climate change. The impact of climate change that is felt most severely by the population is the reduction in agricultural production, which then impacts decreasing household income. To meet household economic needs, some residents respond by migrating outside the village in search of work. This research uses a qualitative approach with in-depth interview techniques, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and observation. The research locations were East and North Lombok Regency, NTB Province. The results showed no management of migration due to the impact of climate change by the NTB provincial government and district governments. There are no programs aimed at facilitating migration due to the impacts of climate change. Therefore it is necessary to include migration as a strategic issue in the adaptation and mitigation action plan to address the impacts of climate change at both the national and regional levels with the Ministry of Manpower and its aides-de-camp as the sector leading.
