Sub-type Discussion paper Author Afifi, Tamer Title Stealth Environmental Influences on Economic Migration in Egypt Series Title Discussion Paper Series Volume/Issue No. 1 Publication Date 2011-07 Place of Publication Waterloo Publisher Africa Initiative and The Centre for International Governance Innovation Pages XX, 20 Language eng Abstract Policy makers and academics often pay little attention to environmental drivers of migration in Egypt. This paper demonstrates that environmental factors are often the hidden cause of the migration of Egyptians from one region to another. The analysis is situated in the broader studies on migration, and also shows why the findings of this study are significant. The paper makes recommendations that will hopefully help policy makers in understanding the causes of environmental migration and assist them in developing policies to address the problem of environmentally induced migration in a sustainable way.
