Une intervention de François Gemenne dans le cadre des "Stockholm Seminars-Focusing on the dynamics and stewardship of social-ecological systems" organisés par le Stockholm Resilience Centre (Research for Governance of Social-Ecological Systems) de la Stockholm University.

Présentation du séminaire [en anglais] :

"Massive population displacements are regularly forecasted as one of the most dramatic possible consequences of climate change. Empirical studies, however, reveal a different picture: migration becomes an adaptation strategy for those who are affected by the impacts of climate change, yet mobility often remains a luxury, unavailable for those who cannot afford to migrate. Hence the most vulnerable are often stuck in places heavily impacted by climate change, unable to seek higher grounds and a better life.

This presentation will challenge the commonly-held views of ‘climate refugees’ and show how policy responses to environmental changes affect people’s ability to migrate, and why these policy responses often matter more than the very impacts of climate change in their migration decision."
