Addressing these risks requires better information about the destinations preferred by climate migrants. Environmental migration is complex, which means that solutions to the challenges posed by such mobility have to be developed in conjunction with and anchored in the local contexts of the affected populations. Given this imperative, we are supporting the Zolberg Institute and Slumdwellers International to develop an action plan to improve the situation of migrants in Africa’s coastal cities.
