With the Collaborative Adaptation Research In Africa and Asia (CARIAA)<\/a> programme slowly heading towards to a completion, the thrust is now upon what we have learnt together as a research programme. In India, CARIAA has three consortia working in the different hotspots- deltas (DECCMA), mountains (Hi-AWARE<\/a>) and semi-arid areas (ASSAR<\/a>). Built into the programme design was the idea of the Country Table which gave a chance to the three consortia to provide a national perspective on different topics.<\/p>\n

The India Country Table had met earlier for workshops and meetings during the life of CARIAA but the workshop on migration which was held at Kolkata on 19th<\/sup> January 2018 was different as it was the first time that the three consortia came together to share their findings on migration.\u00a0\u00a0DECCMA-India\u200b (\u200bJadavpur University<\/a>) \u200bhosted this one-day workshop on migration on the 19th January 2018 in Kolkata which was attended by researchers of ASSAR from Indian Institute of Human Settlements (IIHS)<\/a>\u00a0and Hi-AWARE from The Energy Resources Institute (TERI)<\/a>. Dr. K S Murali from IDRC<\/a> was also present.<\/p>\n

Migration experts Prof S Chandrasekhar of Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research (IGIDR<\/a>, India) \u200band Dr Amina Maharjan of the\u00a0International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD, Nepal)\u200b provided\u00a0feedback on\u00a0the\u00a0findings.<\/p>\n

For an effective Research into Use effort, the Indian Country Table decided to produce policy briefs on three topics \u2013 Hotspots (led by Hi-AWARE-TERI), Adaptation (led by ASSAR-IIHS) and Migration (led by DECCMA-JU) and then share these with relevant policy makers. While dissemination of findings is encouraged at this stage of the programme, we realised the need to use the one day workshop to gather a clearer understanding of where we stand vis-\u00e0-vis migration across the respective hotspots.<\/p>\n

Synthesising findings across different disciplines, hotspots, and methodologies on a topic which was not envisaged to be researched upon on a same scale by all the three consortia was a challenge. Moving beyond one\u2019s own research methodology and bringing together qualitative and quantitative findings required some discussion. The feedback and guidance from the experts helped us identify some themes which could guide us to tie the findings from the three consortia together.<\/p>\n

The workshop was a success. How effective are workshops if they don\u2019t make one \u201cwork\u201d?! The team is now working on the India migration policy brief which should be available online by March 2018.<\/p>\n
