Abstract

The presentation is based on a study carried out by Leadership for Environment and Development (LEAD) Pakistan, “Climate Change and Migration: Exploring the Linkages in the Context of Pakistan,” which is the first independent research study exploring linkages between migration and climate change in the context of Pakistan. Recommendations from the study include policy responses built on an understanding of the existing patterns of internal and international migration, advocating for more robust census data collection that allows for environmental factors to be counted in as drivers for internal migration.
