Scientific recognition of the complex relationships between climate, migration and society has increased in recent years, but it often remains incomplete. Misleading claims about mass migration due to climate change persist both in the academic debate, as highlighted by Boas et al. (2019) and Zickgraf (2020), but especially in the media, the public, and politics. While international migration and climate policy makers increasingly portray climate change as a key driver of migration from the Global South to the Global North, this narrative often simplifies complex realities and often lacks empirical foundation (Black et al., 2011). The militarisation of 'climate migration' is reinforced by public funding programmes that prioritise security concerns over comprehensive understanding, such as funding calls under the Horizon 2020 programme (Piguet et al., 2018). These narratives influence border management measures and migration policies in destination countries and perpetuate the myth of "climate migration" or "climate flight" as a security risk (Trombetta, 2014). The planned project aims to 1) identify reasons for the discrepancy between public perception and research (the current state of knowledge would then have to be analysed in the case school and then the survey would have to deepen this). 2) Identify opportunities for better communication of scientific findings. 3) Anchoring the topic permanently in science. By promoting an objective discussion and sensitisation of young scientists, the public and politicians, awareness of the complex links between climate change and migration should be raised. This will ultimately lead to more informed political decisions and a better public debate on these important issues.

This project includes a three-day Fall School for Master and PhD students at CIES-Iscte.
