In her dissertation, Maria Alsina Pujols examined this and other effects of climate change and ways to address them. Her findings highlight the importance of restricting activities that pollute the environment. This would help to reduce forced migration.
Her dissertation makes a crucial contribution towards achieving Sustainable Development Goal SDG 13 - "Action on Climate Change." For this reason, she has won this year's SDG Impact Award at PhD level!
