Join the International School on Climate Mobilities, IOM’s Climate Action Division (CAD) and, Duke University’s Program on Climate-Related Migration (PCRM) to explore, discuss and understand the exciting career opportunities in the climate mobility sector.

As one of the most pressing and complex issues of our time, it is increasingly important that diverse groups of stakeholders come together to respond to the effects of climate-related mobility in diverse ways. We recognise that there is no single solution or entry-point into this growing sector. So, the ISCM, in partnership with Duke University’s Program on Climate-Related Migration (PCRM) and IOM’s Climate Action Division (CAD), is hosting an online event that will bring together a panel of practitioners with unique perspectives in a plenary session to share their insights on working, researching and pioneering in the climate mobility space. The panel will include both early career and established professionals and aims to inspire and inform attendees about the ways in which they might contribute to meaningful work that responds to the climate-mobility nexus.
