This was contained in communiqué signed by Professor Appollonia Okhimamhe, the Team Lead of MIGRAWARE Research and Director, West African Science Service Centre on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use’s Doctoral Research Programme on Climate Change and Human Habitat (WASCAL DRP on CCHH) at the end of a one-day hybrid validation workshop held at Stratton Hotel, Asokoro, Abuja.

The workshop’s objective was to showcase and validate research outcomes from the WASCAL DRP on CCHH and the Department of Geography at Federal University of Technology, Minna .
The research also involved collaboration with Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (Germany), the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), Coknow (Germany), PiSolutions (Germany), the University of Wurzburg (Germany), the University of Cape Coast (Ghana), the Centre for Scientific and Industrial Research (Ghana), Hen Mpoano (Ghana), and the University of Nazi Boni (Burkina Faso).
It further underlined the importance of leveraging the outcomes of the WASCAL CCHH-led MIGRAWARE project to shape national migration policies, especially in line with the domestication of the Kampala Declaration.
