SUMMARY:Authoritarian Climates: (Im)mobility and the Green Transition in th
 e Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Contact: mo.hamza@risk.lth.se\n\nIn 2024\, climate disasters ca
 used 45.8 million displacements\, more than double those from armed confli
 ct. This workshop shifts the focus from traditional conflict-driven migrat
 ion to the political and environmental drivers of (im)mobility. We investi
 gate a critical paradox: how climate "solutions" themselves drive displace
 ment. In authoritarian contexts\, "Green Transition" projects\, such as so
 larfarms and carbon capture\, are often implemented via top-down state act
 ion and green extractivism.Register here&nbsp\;Core Research Questions:Q1:
  How do authoritarian States in the Middle East contribute and respond to 
 displacement that arises due to action on adaptation and mitigation?&nbsp\
 ;Q2: Which roles do other actors play in the displacement dynamics arising
  from action on adaptation and mitigation\, including corporate actors and
  international development partners?&nbsp\;Q3: What legal and political to
 ols are affected people using to resist displacement in these contexts\, a
 nd what underexplored avenues can be engaged?Register here&nbsp\;\n\nMore
