This event, co-hosted by the German, French and Irish Embassies to the UK and adelphi, follows on from the high-level discussion at COP26 and aims to highlight how climate security risks affect the most vulnerable, using examples from a forthcoming Weathering Risk case study on Mali.

The panellists will explore how climate security risks increase the vulnerability of those already facing the double burden of climate change and conflict, and what concrete opportunities exist to promote just, equitable and sustainable peace for most vulnerable communities in the face of these risks.
