Emerson Collective is an organization designed to develop opportunities and solutions in education, environment, immigration, gun violence and health equity through philanthropy, creativity and investments. Established and led by Laurene Powell Jobs in 2011, Emerson Collective is working to create new possibilities for individuals, families, and communities.
The Opportunity
Emerson Collective’s work on climate migration seeks to promote a global consensus on how to address climate-driven migration while building policy solutions and legal strategies that prioritize and engage affected communities.
At Emerson Collective we support systems that ensure migration is safe, legal, and orderly. As anthropogenic climate change continues to transform the world we live in, the need to elevate the reality of climate change as an accelerant to mobility has grown starker. Our work in climate migration recognizes that the climate crisis acts as an accelerant to migration and necessitates strategic, coordinated, and interconnected responses, both within the migration policy landscape as well as within global climate policy.
The Immigration Analyst will provide critical research, writing, and administrative support to bolster our work at the intersection of climate change and human migration. This role will report to the Director, Immigration Strategy.
