dc.descriptionThis executive summary distils the key messages from a nuanced analysis of a topic that is inherently discursive. There is no unified account of the migration-resource nexus but rather a multifaceted set of scenarios and causal linkages in a complex adaptive system. Quantitative and geospatial data have been provided, as well as ethnographic narratives to highlight some of these key areas where policymakers and analysts can draw lessons. Structural inequality, in terms of income and natural resource endowments, is a key driver of human mobility. In this regard, inclusive wealth generation could be a way of mitigating involuntary migration.en
