CI’s President and Chair, Dr. Erin McFee, has contributed a chapter to the latest IOM-UN and Women Development Organization report, Women and Climate Change: The Status of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment in Organization for Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Member States. In her chapter, titled “Gender and the Climate Change Conflict and Migration Nexus: Navigating Ecologies of Vulnerability in the MENA Region,” she introduces the “Ecologies of Vulnerability” framework, exploring the complex intersections of migration, climate change, conflict, and environmental degradation, with a focus on gender. This research provides valuable insights and advocates for policies that enhance the resilience and adaptive capacities of women, especially female migrants and displaced persons in the region.
