Measuring climate security: Are peaceful countries immune to climate security threats?

Our second webinar explored the ways peace is measured and analyzed and debate ways we can improve these methods so they’re more sensitive to climate.

Conventional evaluations and indexes that measure the extent and quality of peace more often than not fail to embrace the role that climate can play in insecurity and instability. The speakers in our second webinar aimed to correct this imbalance by developing indicators and measurements that are sensitive to climate and conflict
