adelphi and EPLO host workshop series on climate change and human security

8 February, 2021

EPLO

In 2020 the European Peacebuilding Liaison Office (EPLO), together with adelphi and the Climate Diplomacy initiative, with support from the German Federal Foreign Office, organised two series of online workshops. The series brought together civil society experts and policymakers to discuss challenges, lessons learned, best practices and recommendations relating to how to address the linkages between climate change, conflict and peace.

The discussions were focused in particular on how to integrate peacebuilding efforts and climate resilience programming, including through initiatives bringing communities together to address the effects of climate change and prevent conflict. A report presents the key points from the discussions in the eight workshops in the series, while a policy brief presents a summary of the key points and recommendations.
