Starting a Conversation on Climate-Caused Migration

There are days when studying communication for development leads to more questions than answers. It is a world of frameworks and acronyms, which at times seem to be misleading rather than guiding. With days like these, it helps to talk with other students – exchanging perspectives in a quest for a broader understanding one could call it.

Such a conversation has been recorded, revolving around the topic of climate-caused migration. Together Clodagh and Indigo explore what climate-caused migration entails, why we think it is important to talk about it and what we think possible implications could look like.
