While projections of the number of people likely to move due to climate change are often calculated on a global scale, empirical studies are often conducted on a very local scale, making them very context-specific and bounded by national boundaries. This spatial disconnection implies that case studies can hardly inform quantitative assessments, while the latter are of little use to policy-makers, who often work on a local or national scale. In order to remedy this discrepancy, HABITABLE conducts empirical studies on a systemic scale: <\/span>the unit of analysis will no longer be an administrative division, but rather a social-ecological system, <\/b>which can be transboundary.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t HABITABLE focuses on four regions of the world: <\/span>West Africa, East Africa, Southern Africa<\/b> and <\/span>South-East Asia<\/b>, and SES within them. <\/span>These four regions are relevant for investigating <\/b>the systemic interrelations between climate change, human mobility dynamics and policy responses as their social-ecological systems are highly vulnerable to climate change impacts, and they all reveal very active and dynamic migration systems.<\/span><\/p> Study sites<\/b> (here meaning geographical points of data collection) will be divided into primary and secondary.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Primary sites<\/b> are those were a common set of methods \u2013 Longitudinal Quantitative Surveys, Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping, Semi-Structured Interviews, Focus Group Discussions and Stakeholder Dialogues \u2013 will conducted in order to generate <\/span>comparable, harmonized and longitudinal data and qualitative understandings<\/b>.<\/span><\/p> Primary site in-country partners consist of Addis Ababa University (Ethiopia), University of Ghana (Ghana), INSTAT Mali (Mali), Raks Thai Foundation (Thailand) and Samuel Hall (Sudan).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Secondary sites appear in unique Work Packages according to their analytical objectives in order to <\/span>complement the results <\/b>gathered in primary sites.
