This policy brief is written by Elin Jakobsson and summarises the key findings from her report “The Politics of Climate Change and Migration”, included in the book Climate Change and Migration – Policy approaches towards a sustainable future. The report explores how the international community and the European Union (EU) have dealt with the issue of climate-driven migration and why we have yet to find adequate measures to respond to the challenge. This brief outlines the most important steps that could be taken on the EU level in order to advance the union’s response to migration and displacement driven by climate change.
