Abstract
The author delves into migration in a different way, not only in moving to another country but to another stage of life and even within your own posthuman body. The author starts exploring migration and bioethics in the context of climate change and increasing displacement. We need moral imagination and the ability to plan justice to ensure solidarity with displaced populations, especially the elderly and forcibly displaced. To begin with, increasing awareness of social, political, and cultural dimensions of disability can lead to a more culturally humble rework of the international classification of functioning, disability, and health. Furthermore, we'll know more about migration, ageing and the perpetuation of poverty through ethnic background inheritance. We'll also examine the potential of near-future healthcare devices in detecting health problems of refugees and even the use of chemical analysis to detect ethnic backgrounds at the border. Finally, the author speculates about the concept of cyborgs and transhumanism and the potential for abuse by those in power.
