Wasser ist lebensnotwendig & lebensbedrohlich zugleich. Dies wird uns durch den #Klimawandel auch hierzulande schmerzhaft deutlich. Wie wirken sich Wasserextreme auf unsere Demokratie aus? Eine spannende Veranstaltung - ich werde über #Klimamigration reden

Two students & I reviewed every #IPCC report since 1990, identified, summarized how migration/displacement were assessed. Resulting 33p report too massive for a journal article available free, open access here here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
Evolution of climate-related migration and displacement in IPCC reporting
Concerns about climate change impacts on migration and displacement have been expressed regularly by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) since

Prognosen zu #Flucht und #Migration – insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit der #Klimakrise - haben sich stets einer gewissen Beliebtheit erfreut. Aber lässt sich Migration überhaupt vorhersagen? Meine jüngste Kolumne im Migazin 👇

@benschraven.bsky.social kommentiert im Fluchtforschungsblog konzise die Ergebnisse der COP28 in Bezug auf Migration+Flucht. Fazit: nicht nichts, aber mehr Fokus auf die Herausforderungen und Bedürfnisse der vom Klimawandel Betroffenen ist dringend nötig.

We know of the enormous importance of #migrants & #diasporas for the socio-economic and development of the countries of origin. What many still overlook is that financial transfers are often made through informal channels. My latest op-ed (in 🇩🇪) 👇
