Climate Change and Migration: Global Challenges and Local Mitigation Strategies

This volume explores the complex intersection of climate change and migration from interdisciplinary and international perspectives. Based on the 2023 Antalya Science Forum (ANISF), the book brings together leading scholars and practitioners to analyze climate-induced mobility, food security, legal frameworks, urban resilience, and policy responses at global, national, and local levels. Contributions span empirical research, legal analysis, and case studies from Africa, Türkiye, and the EU. With a focus on inclusive and rights-based approaches, the volume challenges Eurocentric narratives and calls for stronger academic cooperation and policy innovation to address two of the most pressing global issues of our time.
