The project\u2019s title, \u201cPHOENIX\u201d, reminds us that individuals and societies can also follow an adaptive cycle of growth, maturity, vulnerability, and renewal\u2014like the legend of the Phoenix, soaring back stronger after global changes is possible.   <br\/><br\/> <br\/><br\/>PHOENIX will focus on the study of governance beyond traditional approaches focused on climate or migration to explore how we can apply the theory of social tipping points as a way to integrate climate (im)mobilities across policy silos. We include regional comparisons with reflections on the global scale of governance to provide specific and out-of-the-box policy recommendations. Next, the project dives deep into two human-centric case studies of social tipping points. The food security and belonging case study focuses on the economic, political and social dimensions of food before, during and after migration to explain how migration policy and economic-environmental changes drive the migration decisions and experiences of forced migrants. The cultural survival and resilience case study responds to criticism of earlier resilience research pointing to its overemphasis on the individualized nature of adaptation and the lack of sensitivity to community and cultural factors in contextualizing resilience practices. This case study adopts a culturally sensitive approach and examines how fears of cultural extinction are exacerbated by global changes, mobility, and governance and how cultural coping\u2014resilience\u2014can be improved. The final stage of the project brings together the quantitative and qualitative work from the project\u2019s data modeling, governance analyses, and two case studies to push innovation by developing an interdisciplinary model.  <br\/><br\/> <br\/><br\/>PHOENIX explores how social tipping points appear when quantifiable factors (such as environmental and economic changes) intersect with the qualitative effects of governance failures and the socio-cultural dimensions of vulnerability. By integrating natural and social science research using qualitative and quantitative data, we go beyond the state-of-the-art to identify migration hotspots and suggest interventions for future Global Change and (im)mobility events.  <br\/><br\/> <br\/><br\/>The consortium includes world-renowned climate scientists and migration scholars who have previously managed large-scale multidisciplinary projects and are well-qualified to oversee all project tasks. We combine disciplinary expertise in earth and climate science, sustainability studies, political science, sociology, psychology, economics, anthropology, law, human rights, gender, and intersectional approaches to maximize the project&#8217;s innovation potential.   <br\/><br\/> <br\/><br\/>PHOENIX\u2019s research and impact framework is designed to develop a holistic approach to global change. It includes all phases of governance cycles and focuses on post-mobility belonging and resilience. Since global changes have an uneven impact based on pre-existing vulnerabilities, and failure to understand this reinforces existing inequalities, PHOENIX will thus study how vulnerabilities impact and are impacted by policies attempting to prevent and prepare for global changes. Of particular concern is how global changes (re)shape gender norms and inequalities for migrants and members of local communities. Our human-centric case studies explore how local cultural knowledge can prevent and reduce existing risks, prepare for new lives after mobility, and ensure the sustainability of distressed societies.   <br\/>By bringing together multiple lines of evidence and focusing on human agency in specific contexts, our research can potentially transform the academic study of global changes and (im)mobilities and influence policymakers and public perceptions. The scientific impact of the project is shaped by project reports that will develop into papers presented at academic workshops. These workshops will lead to special issues of leading peer-reviewed journals and\/or edited volumes that ensure knowledge contributions at the highest levels. The project findings will be tested and communicated in country-specific stakeholder expert panels (SEP) and policy briefs that aim to reshape governance responses to Global Changes. By including stakeholders throughout the project, not only at the end, we ensure that the research is tailored to specific contexts and policy-makers\u2019 needs. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PROJECT INFORMATION Principal investigator (PI): Graciela Susana Rodriguez , Instituto EQUIT, G\u00e9nero, Econom\u00eda y Ciudadan\u00eda Global, Brasil Contact \u2013 Email:\u202f graciela@equit.org.br Duration &amp; amount: (April 2023 \u2013\u202f 2026).
