Water stress and human migration : a global, georeferenced review of empirical research Paperback / softback
by Food and Agriculture Organization, David J. Wrathall
Part of the Land and water discussion paper series
Paperback / softback
Description
This report assesses and maps 184 peer-reviewed, empirical research articles selected for their focus on linkages between water stress and human migration.
First and most importantly, this literature asserts that migration is an extremely common social process and is normal in almost every society on earth.
Moreover, environment- influenced migration is rarely (if ever) a resource threat to the regions to which people move.
The literature does, however, observe that negative social outcomes can result from narratives that stigmatize migrants and/or cast migrants as a security threat - especially when these narratives are used to justify increased surveillance and monitoring of these people.
