摘要
The consequences of climate change are already upon us and are projected to worsen. Impacts are already being felt around the world. These impacts will be most harmful to security and stability in already fragile contexts where vulnerable communities are already facing the risk of conflict and insecurity. This presentation sets out seven compound risk factors through which climate change and human security are interrelated. This is intended to help the understanding of the current and future implications of climate change on human security in fragile states so that we can better address some of these risks through preventative interventions and resilience building where possible.
