The International Organization for Migration (IOM) has just released a new policy brief entitled Migration, Climate Change and the Environment. The eight-page brief presents key information and analysis on the interplay between the three factors. It is designed as a general introduction to the topic of environmental migration and presentation of the perspective and involvement of the IOM in this field.
According to the paper, “No one agency or stakeholder alone holds the key to the solutions and IOM wishes to play its part in collaborative approaches.” IOM also highlights the need to raise policy and public awareness of the need for concerted action to address the challenges presented by the climate change, environmental degradation, and the migration nexus.
