Episode 39: Livelihoods: The socioeconomic link between climate change and security

Livelihoods are how the necessities of life are secured. They are a determining factor in many contexts around the world. Many livelihoods are dependent on a healthy environment and a stable climate, making them particularly sensitive to climate and environmental crises.  At the same time, they are deeply entangled with social and economic dynamics. As a consequence, livelihoods form a key pathway in the climate-security nexus. In this host-to-host deep dive, we get to talk a bit about our how livelihood security features in our own work, a few experiences and findings, as well as key entry points and recommendations that have emerged from our projects and initiatives at adelphi.Further readings:Climate, Peace and Security Assessment: MaliNext steps towards an inclusive Climate, Peace and Security Agenda Weathering Risk methodology Climate Security Study: Kenya Pacific Climate Security Assessment Guide© adelphi research, all rights reserved  adelphi research (https://adelphi-research.de/en) is a non-profit independent think tank for environmental and development policy research and analysis.
