Established in the 1870s, Delacre is a purveyor of biscuits to the Belgian Royal House, having first been appointed in 1879. Italian confectionery giant Ferrero has announced the completion of its deal to buy Belgian luxury biscuit brand Delacre from UK-based Pladis.

If Ferrero can expand Delacre’s presence geographically and within the alternative retail channel, including retail stores, foodservice and online, it has a good chance of boosting its already profitable business. ​ Migrations climatiques: une idée qui bouge, PhD workshop with policy-makers, Cité de la Solidaire Internationale, Annemasse, France [online] (November 2020)

Rather than seeking to provide definite answers about what climate migration is, or even how we should talk about it, my PhD thesis examines how other people react when confronted with these analytical and political questions. I map, trace, and explain the different ways in which other people answer them. How do they know what climate migration is? What are the processes of knowledge production and dissemination that people use to make sense of climate migration, what modes of representation, what political frameworks? On a theoretical level, I define this approach as a study of the “epistemic mobilities” of climate migration.

Climate Migration Discourses in the French and UK Press: A Comparative Analysis, in panel on “Climate Control: Politicising Hopes and Fears of Migration in a Changing Climate – Climates of Fear”, RGS-IGB Conference, London, UK (August 2019) I describe an unstable and fragmented stakeholder network marked by persistent tensions. On the one hand, climate migration is seen as a self-evidently real phenomenon requiring a response. On the other, and in a political context marked by widespread hostility towards migrants, stakeholders continue to disagree on the usefulness of causal claims linking climate change to migration. Further, I show that dominant practices used to represent climate migration only serve to reinforce these tensions. French stakeholders never successfully locate climate migration in a “here and now” amenable to intervention. Finally, I also highlight simultaneous and contradictory attempts to politicise and depoliticise responses to climate migration, as evidenced by debates about responsibility and justice. Having underscored the contingent nature of climate migration debates, I conclude the thesis by comparing my French case study with other countries, suggesting that many of the issues faced by French stakeholders are likely to apply in other contexts.
