Samuel Hall - Against The Clock : Our Position On Climate Migration

March 2022

For over ten years, we have worked in fragile and conflict-prone settings across 60+ countries. Many of the places we know, and the communities we work with, are among the most vulnerable to climate change. Our experience tells us that there are several gaps in climate and migration research – gaps that urgently need addressing.

Samuel’s Hall’s latest short paper outlines our position on climate migration. In a context where climate migration has been characterised by some as a ‘worse case scenario’, and yielded by populists and nationalists to stoke fear, there is a need for evidence-based policy-making derived from research that centres the voices of communities.

Focusing on the need for rapid, community-owned and led action, this report nods to local governance initiatives leading climate justice movements across the globe and spotlights some of our key projects and commitments in this area.

Samuel Hall – 10 Years of Impact

March 2021

COVID-19 has thrown research under the global spotlight and there is an almost unprecedented demand for monitoring and data analysis. The need for evidence-based humanitarian decision-making and prioritisation is great. We must ensure that research and aid are not blinkered and keep the world’s most vulnerable populations in mind.

Our industry is grappling with the best ways to create, capture and evaluate impact – not least because funding is increasingly tied to measuring it. This short report explores what 'impact' means in the context of research into migration and displacement.

It highlights some of our most impactful projects from the last ten years; touches on the ways that COVID-19 has changed research; nods to partnerships that have helped us to make a difference; and features some fascinating Q&As on what impact means to various experts.
