Title: “Migration and Climate Change – What do we know ? What can we expect ?”
Abstract: The impact of environmental change on migration and the way migration can act as a response to environmental hazards are attracting an increasing attention from both policy-makers and researchers worldwide in the context of climate change. Yet, knowledge in this field remains limited and fragmented. This paper will provide an overview of the environmental change migration nexus and investigate the key issues at stake. The concepts and methods most adequate to address these relationships will also be questioned.
