Non-economic loss and damage (NELD) associated with climate change is increasingly recognized as a critical yet under-assessed dimension of climate risk, particularly in vulnerable regions such as Africa. This study presents an analytical framework for synthesizing evidence from a systematic literature review conducted under the ASCEND initiative...

This symposium discussed the challenges and opportunities of climate security and examined its continued relevance under a shifting geopolitical landscape in the Asia-Pacific region. The event presented an opportunity to take stock of the activities and achievements of the Asia-Pacific Climate Security (APCS) project conducted by IGES over the past...

APCSプロジェクトの過去3年間にわたる活動および成果を総括する場となった本シンポジウムでは、気候安全保障が抱える課題と機会について議論し、アジア太平洋地域の地政学的状況の変化の中で、気候安全保障が引き続き持つ意義について検討した。さらに、今後刊行予定の「APCS政策レポート」の紹介を通じて、本プロジェクトから得られた知見や洞察を、国内外の研究者、関連する政策立案者、および気候安全保障分野に関心を持つステークホルダーに広め、批判的に検討する場ともなった。

Global food security is increasingly shaped by the convergence of climate change, water scarcity, energy transitions, and evolving food systems, creating complex and interdependent risks that cannot be addressed in isolation. This paper highlights the urgent need for integrated, systems-based approaches to understand and manage these interconnected...

Agriculture lies at the centre of the climate change challenge, simultaneously functioning as a highly climate-vulnerable sector and a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions through land use, crop production, livestock, and food systems. This presentation examines the climate change–agriculture nexus through a comparative analysis of...

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a critical driver of human and national insecurity, yet its integration into climate adaptation planning remains limited. This study examines how climate security considerations can be systematically embedded within National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), moving from conceptual understanding to practical...

The presentation examines the need for a paradigm shift from traditional national security to one that incorporates climate security as a fundamental component of human security. The study, based on field research in Sri Lanka, investigates how National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) can be restructured to explicitly address climate security concerns...

This presentation examines how climate security can be systematically integrated into national adaptation planning to enhance both human and national security outcomes. Drawing on a review of 67 National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) submitted to the UNFCCC, the study identifies significant gaps in how countries conceptualize and operationalize security...

National adaptation plans (NAPs) in general and in Asia in particular often focus primarily on domestic climate risks, but the increasing significance of transboundary climate impacts calls for a broader, interconnected perspective. For example, disruptions in agricultural production in food-exporting countries, such as India, caused by climate...

Highland communities are facing numerous challenges that heighten their susceptibility to climate change, particularly because of rapid alterations in land use and land cover, which in turn affect local ecosystems. In the absence of non-governmental organizations and other non-state entities, local governments assume a crucial role in enhancing...
