International Organization for Migration

Sheryn See, currently MPhil student with our lab, is undertaking a 4-month placement as a Climate Displacement Specialist with the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Sheryn will be supporting the development of the Risk Index for Climate Displacement (RICD) - a risk index and predictive model that will improve quantification, understanding and forecasting of potential future challenges linked to climate change and migration, including climate-induced displacement. The RICD will help governments, communities, and partners to increase the resilience of populations most likely to be impacted by climate-induced displacement and work towards averting or addressing loss and damage.
