Historical Grounding of Migration Decisions of the People at Environmental Risks

Project description

Understanding environmental non-migration

Natural disasters and environmental change are major drivers for temporary or permanent migration. In the context of changing global climate, it is important to understand the “push” factors as related to migration decision-making. Also important, the EU-funded HoMe project will investigate the factors contributing to non-migration decisions. It will formulate a new analytical framework for examining the historical grounding of migration decisions. It will develop a model to explain migration patterns and to predict future migration decisions. The results will provide insight into climate change-induced migration and the rationale of staying put, which is absent from current policy dialogue in the emerging field of environmental non-migration.
