TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the interrelationships between rainfall variability, livelihood/food security and migration in rural Savannah communities in Northern Ghana and found that households are highly dependent on rain-fed subsistence agriculture and livestock rearing, showing a low degree of economic diversification.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the interrelationships between rainfall variability, livelihood/food security and migration in rural Savannah communities in Northern Ghana and found that households are highly dependent on rain-fed subsistence agriculture and livestock rearing, showing a low degree of economic diversification.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the dynamics between rainfall variability, food insecurity and human mobility in eight case studies, namely Ghana, Tanzania, Guatemala, Peru, Bangladesh, India, Thailand and Vietnam.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest that the link between drought, migration and conflict is complex and is influenced by a multiplicity of environmental, socioeconomic, and political factors, and that the need for integrated early warning systems, the promotion of weather-based crop insurance schemes, the development of drought mitigation tools, and the need to incorporate disaster risk reduction components into long-term development planning.

TL;DR: The Where the Rain Falls research project as mentioned in this paper aims to improve the understanding about how rainfall variability affects food and livelihood security, and undertook research in eight case study countries, including India, China, USA, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand and India.
