Climate-fueled global migration can polarize migrant-receiving communities, which can in turn erode the societal cooperation needed for climate decision-making. Breaking this vicious cycle will require a better understanding of how climate change contributes to migration and of how local and international policies address migration. This project will use case studies to examine links between climate migration and climate policy, including a study of climate migrants living in the New Haven area.
