The following project was produced by a working group from the inaugural Carnegie Ethics Fellows cohort reflecting nearly two years of convenings, collaboration, and research. Each report in this special series examines a critical issue at the intersection of ethics and international affairs. The Carnegie Ethics Fellowship aims to develop the next generation of ethical leaders across business, government, academia, and non-governmental organizations.
In October 2021, the White House released a new report exploring the impact of climate change on migration. This marked the first time that the U.S. government officially noted the link between climate and human mobility. Small Island Developing States (SIDS) have been highlighting this link for years, but the recognition by the Biden administration of the interconnectedness between climate and migration was a critical step forward. Today, superpowers and small nations alike are seeing the significant impacts of worsening climate change on migration and the global consequences.
