Une session du séminaire Développement durable et économie de l'environnement

Presentation of the lecture:

A possible impact of environmental change and population growth is an increase in global human migration as people move to cope with a deteriorating environment.
How can we best understand global migration arising from environmental change to help those who move, those in host areas, and those who stay behind, and what are the policy implications? The project on Global Environmental Migration, led by Foresight (http://www.bis.gov.uk/foresight), aims to explore that question.
Professor Andrew Geddes, one member of the lead expert group, and Marthe Achtnich will present the final report, and the main conclusions of the project.
