Big challenges and big data – Making climate-induced migration visible with machine learning.

Climate change and global migration are at the centre of policymakers’ efforts. The World Bank has dedicated an entire report to the topic of water, climate change, and development. Together with the World Bank colleagues we have assembled a new dataset to make climate-induced migration visible with the use of explainable machine learning techniques. We showcase how social data science can help policy to make more informed decisions on some of the largest challenges of our times.
