This one-day in-person workshop invites together scholars from the CSCW community with expertise in immigration and displacement, climate change and sustainability, and/or mobility justice to consider the challenge of climate migration and how we, as a community, might respond. We draw from previous workshops on migration and displacement in CSCW and HCI, as well as draw in researchers from other related areas, e.g., ICTD, development scholarship, and sustainability sciences. In this workshop, participants aim to engage in an array of activities such as concept mapping, archival creation, research proposal ideation and presentations. Outcomes will include the development of a community of scholars working at the nexus of these crises, common understanding of relevant concepts and themes, and a shared research agenda to guide future work.
