Abstract

Humanity has always migrated due to environmental factors. Nevertheless, the frequency and intensity of migration flows influenced by environmental reasons have grown exponentially. The environment, however, plays a combined role with other factors regarding the decision to move and the movement itself can vary in distance, duration, level of vulnerability and according with the regional particularities. Having this in mind, this research paper decided to choose one specific case to approach the complexities that environmental migration can raise. The case is of Senegal. The country has suffered climate change impacts, natural and human made-disasters and its people have moved internally and cross-border to cope with the situation.
