abstract
- The argument is informed and motivated by recent pioneering research presented in a special issue of International Migration Review (2006) focused on gender and migration studies, as well as a migration-focused special issue of Gender, Technology and Development (2008).Further, innovative scholarship linking gender and climate change has recently appeared in two issues of Gender and Development (2002; 2009). This important body of work adds nuance to earlier insight on the gendered aspects of migration – particularly as related to migration patterns, processes and policies.
