Climate Change and Conflict

 

To understand and promote environmental security alongside sustainable and just development in order to protect peoples against the negative impacts of climate change, socio-economic fragility and conflict.

The programme aims to fill knowledge gaps working alongside Pacific actors and address their capacity needs with regard to their own work on climate change and conflict. Toda brings together leading international and local experts on climate change, policymakers and practitioners—civil society organisations and peacebuilders—in the region, creating opportunities for increased dialogue and policy engagement at local and national levels in Oceania in order to develop conflict-sensitive policies and strategies for grappling with the negative impacts of climate change.
