Dr. Robin Bronen is an international expert in the forced migrations of people. Her research explores the permanent disappearance of land due to climate change, and the impacts of warming on populations and migration. Using her experience as an immigration attorney and her knowledge of the law, Bronen developed a legal “relocation” framework for people and countries facing climate-induced displacement to advocate for the rights of those impacted by “climigration,” now a term in the climate change lexicon.
