Mali - How climate and environmental change compound conflict and inequality

Climate, Peace and Security Assessment: Mali is the first full-length national case study using the Weathering Risk methodology, combining state-of-the-art climate impacts data with on-the-ground conflict analysis. The multimedia case study uses visual storytelling to explore findings, recommendations and stories from people who are experiencing both rising insecurity and significant impacts of climate and environmental change. It provides a ground-breaking level of detail into a country long seen as a hotspot for compound climate change and conflict risks.

Climate Risk Profile: Somalia

Weathering Risk’s Climate Risk Profile: Somalia provides policymakers and practitioners in the field with an overview of projected climate parameters and related impacts on different sectors from now until 2080 under two different climate change scenarios. This is the first step in building a risk-informed climate security analysis.
