The Seefar Foundation launches Climate Change Program

Climate Change has become a hidden driver of migration, human trafficking, displacement, extremism and social exclusion in many contexts, as well as being one of humanity’s greatest challenges in its own right. We are launching a specific programme and fund to accelerate the drawdown of carbon and its climate impact on vulnerable communities.

Measuring a destination country’s brand in the minds of people considering irregular migration

This paper demonstrates the power of a country’s brand name in attracting and repelling people considering irregular migration - a dynamic we label your “brand impact”. Four out of five European countries show a clear positive or negative effect in a test designed to isolate the influence of the country’s name. For countries engaged in official and unofficial efforts to shape flows of irregular migrants, the test highlights the need to take your country’s brand into account during activity research, design and evaluation.
