HABITABLE

The overall goal of HABITABLE is to investigate how and to what extent climate change affects the habitability of socio-ecological systems and transforms current and future migration patterns. This will be achieved through four objectives. HABITABLE shall: Develop a predictive understanding of migration trends under climate change through the identification of social tipping points that may induce migration. Propose adaptation options and strategies for populations affected by climate change based on an assessment of how migration redefines the limits to adaptation. Mainstream gendered and social equity dimensions in the project’s conceptual framework, data collection and analysis, and dissemination activities. Support the development of effective policy responses by co-producing migration scenarios and policy recommendations with key stakeholders.
