Climate change is one of the most persistent and exponentially growing threats to peace and security in our century. On a global scale, climate change affects all areas of peace building social conflict, large-scale migration, security, and development.
Climate Change is widely accepted to be a “threat multiplier” of existing risks. For example it can intensify political instability by putting extra stress due to depletion in resources, financial losses, migration and more. And the most vulnerable are at the highest risk of being affected.
