Tell Me About The Postdoctoral Fellowship in Climate Migration at Yale University:

The Yale Center for Environmental Justice (YCEJ) invites applications for a Post-Doctoral Fellow in Climate Migration. This position is part of an interdisciplinary research project titled “The Science, Policies, and Ethics of Climate Migration: Disrupting the Negative Feedbacks Between Climate and Migration Politics.” The project aims to mitigate the negative political feedback loops between climate change and migration by generating research that informs policy and bolsters the resilience of migrant-receiving communities.
