African shifts - The African climate mobility report: Addressing climate-forced migration and displacement

The African Shifts report starts with the ground-level realities of how people experience climate vulnerability, and how it affects mobility decisions in Africa today. It then lays out plausible scenarios for how climate mobility might unfold on the continent between now and 2050, and which parts of the continent are likely to be particularly affected. It concludes by presenting an eight-point Agenda for Action for the next eight years, aligning with the Decade for Action to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement.

The report concludes with an agenda for action. The Africa Climate Mobility Agenda for Action is built on three key tenets for action that can guide African policymakers and stakeholders as well as their international partners in addressing climate mobility as an engine for climate adaptation and resilience-building in the continent.
