UN Meteorological Organisation has released data that point to unprecedented levels of global warming in the last four year, predicted to get worse, and trigger new waves of human migration. Building collective solutions and policies to manage emerging patterns of climate migration is of utmost importance.

Inequality should not be an inevitable reality in daily existence. Although 143 out of 195 countries in the world guarantee gender equality in their constitutions, it has rarely trickled down to equal opportunities for women. It is in this context that research must focus on access to equal opportunities for men and women in the labour market.

The Western world is increasingly moving away from encouraging patterns of permanent migration and settlement of migrants, instead, encouraging routes of temporary migration. Bilateral mobility arrangements lead in such patterns of temporary migration, with annual quota allocation for young migrants. I am particularly interested in exploring patterns of youth mobility between countries at a time when 71 million young people are unemployed around the globe.

itizenship is frequently contested in today’s world where people are fleeing due to hardship, natural disasters, climate change, poverty and conflict. As human mobility gets challenged at physical borders, citizenship terrains gets contested and rewritten. For instance, Donald Trump’s hardline stance on Mexican immigration, has also seen him harden his views on citizenship by birth, currently prevailing in the USA.
