Migration and climate change

This two-lesson course explores the relationship between climate change, rural livelihoods, and migration. It examines how climate change interacts with other factors to drive migration and the conditions under which migration can be an effective adaptation strategy. The course covers the impacts of climate change on rural communities, the challenges in predicting migration trends, and the various outcomes of climate-related migration. It also discusses the role of remittances in building resilience, the social implications of migration on different demographic groups, and the importance of policy in creating an environment where migration can be a choice rather than a necessity for adaptation.
