Building Our Resource Library

Access our resource library to explore the topic of climate migration further, including legal frameworks for climate migration, the economic benefits of welcoming newcomers, and information on funding, research, and other global efforts to support people displaced by climate change.

Climate-related migration is a complex topic – and is a new issue area for most civic leaders, nonprofits, and even consultancies. While this guide intended to support planning for demographic change and newcomers, the resources included are not exhaustive. Additional resources can support your community’s work in advancing welcoming, resilience, sustainability and inclusion.
