Climate Change and Family Investment in Irregular Migration of Minors: The Case of Beni Mellal as a Model

Abstract

In light of the widespread climate change crisis, both globally and locally, humanity is increasingly sensing various dangers in multiple areas, whether economically, socially, psychologically, or culturally. This has led individuals, families, and communities to adopt migration as a strategy to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Moreover, many families view irregular migration as a fundamental means of investment, particularly among minors, in their pursuit to change their economic and social realities and improve their material and spiritual lives. Therefore, we will attempt to address this topic through the lens of the family institution and the media, particularly social media, as these social institutions play a significant role in socialization.
