Assessing Climate Change Risks in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Situations - Insights and Recommendations from a Global Analysis
Low- and middle-income geographies affected by fragility, conflict, and violence (FCV) are confronted with major development challenges, which threaten their efforts to end extreme poverty M]Q produce a more equitable future. At least two-thirds of the global extreme poor will be living in fragile and conflict-affected situations (FCS) by 2030. Geographies dominated by latent, manifest, and escalating violent conflict receive 80 percent of all financing available to humanitarian organizations globally. Violent conflict has spiked dramatically in the last decade, and the global fragility footprint continues to grow and is followed by increasing complexity. The latest global developments add to a multitude of risks and long-lasting impacts on FCV, and these are linked and/or exacerbated by variability and climate change (e.g., food insecurity, environmental degradation, inequalities in access to natural resources, and migration).

| Summary: | Low- and middle-income geographies
affected by fragility, conflict, and violence (FCV) are
confronted with major development challenges, which threaten
their efforts to end extreme poverty M]Q produce a more
equitable future. At least two-thirds of the global extreme
poor will be living in fragile and conflict-affected
situations (FCS) by 2030. Geographies dominated by latent,
manifest, and escalating violent conflict receive 80 percent
of all financing available to humanitarian organizations
globally. Violent conflict has spiked dramatically in the
last decade, and the global fragility footprint continues to
grow and is followed by increasing complexity. The latest
global developments add to a multitude of risks and
long-lasting impacts on FCV, and these are linked and/or
exacerbated by variability and climate change (e.g., food
insecurity, environmental degradation, inequalities in
access to natural resources, and migration). |
