The Climate Security Movie—4 Stages of Action

When it comes to security, the impacts of climate change are particularly harmful. On top of creating unbearable natural conditions in already fragile social and environmental contexts, the conflict situations it aggravates are then more likely to roll back hard-won progresses in peace and development. How can the international community best address this challenge?

This movie, featuring interviews with experts, researchers and policy-makers from the climate and security communities, looks into the four stages of action for addressing climate-related security risks:
00:00:42 1) problem recognition
00:02:07 2) agenda-setting
00:05:10 3) understanding regional complexities and building capacities
00:07:42 4) implementing concerted measures to curb climate insecurity
