The State of Environmental Migration 2020

The State of Environmental Migration 2020

Essai Essai Edited by The Hugo Observatory of the University of Liège, this volume is the tenth in the annual series and the fifth of its kind published with the Presses Universitaires de Liège. The State of Environmental Migration aims to provide its readership with the most updated assessments on recent events and evolving dynamics of environmental migration throughout the world. Each year, the editors select the best graduate student work from the course “Environment and Migration” taught by Caroline Zickgraf at the Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA) of Sciences Po. This year’s authors focus primarily on sudden-onset displacement events, including the Australian megafires, the dam failure in Brumadinho (Brazil), the floods in Budrio (Italy), the Kerala floods (India), and cyclones Idai and Fani in Mozambique and India. The relationship between drought and conflict-related internal displacement in Somalia’s Bay Region, as well as the importance of populations’ perceptions of environmental risk on (im)mobility outcomes during acqua alta in Venice are analysed and discussed.

Even when disasters are sudden and relatively temporary in duration, recovery and return can take years – if it occurs at all.1 Each year disasters expose, magnify, and exacerbate various pre-ex- isting inequalities within and between populations. Understanding what happened in terms of environment and human mobility in 2019, there- fore, also helps us understand the vulnerabilities of 2020, not just to recurrent environmental shocks or ongoing changes but also to other forms of disaster like conflict or a health crisis. We, the editors, feel it is important to note that migrants and displaced people are some of the most vulnerable populations
