A Green Vision for Human Mobility in a Climate Change World

This third edition of the Green Salon – A Green Vision for Human Mobility in a Climate Change World – will take place in Brussels on 20 January 2020.

It is an invitation-only event that addressed Greens from the European and national level as well as independent experts and thinkers from across Europe to come together and feed into the debate with their expertise and assist Greens in discussion and fine-tuning their ideas and positions.

Format

Following input by experts and food for thought on the current state of play and debates around Environmental Mobility, the invitees will be able to engage in discussions based on a draft vision paper.

The Green Salon Series

The past two editions addressed the Future of European Defense (October 2017, Brussels) and the Future of Work as well as the impact of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (February 2018, Vienna).

Climate Refugees and Climate Migration

By Uncategorized

The effects of climate change and consequential natural disasters is causing the mass displacement of peoples across the world, a phenomenon that will only be exacerbated as the climate crisis continues.

A response to this global challenge and a clear legal framework to recognise and protect climate refugees on an international, regional and national level are urgently required.

This working paper aims to serve as a basis for debate and exchange on the matter, exploring controversies around and difficulties in pinpointing this phenomenon to better understand how to respond it.

Mapping the state of discourse on climate migration on the international and European levels, the Green European Foundation hopes to foster a more constructive debate and increase awareness.
