In this chapter, the authors investigate migration as an environmental defensive choice to protect from water scarcity. They propose a theoretical model where a population of economic agents has to decide whether to migrate due to water problems. The authors assume a bi-directional link between migration and water scarcity: the agents’ migration choice
