Adapting to the impacts of climate change in peacebuilding contexts requires strategies to design and implement country-led NAP processes that understand the peace and conflict dynamics.
For conflict-affected countries dealing with national defence issues, the deaths and suffering of their people, and a fragile peace environment, climate change adaptation is rarely, if ever, an immediate priority. However, the close links between climate change and fragility mean that ignoring medium- and long-term adaptation needs in these peacebuilding contexts would be a mistake.
