Are climate and security policies coherent and integrated? A Policy Coherence Analysis

This factsheet answers if climate and security policies coherent and integrated. The results show that there remains a practical disconnect between climate and peace and security-related policy fields. Furthermore, the analysis suggests that the research community should put an effort in creating policy-relevant and actionable understandings of what climate security and climate-peace opportunities mean, to enable policymakers across different contexts and scales to have a common understanding. This publication is part of a factsheet series reporting on the findings of the CGIAR FOCUS Climate Security Observatory work in Africa (Kenya, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Uganda, Zimbabwe). The research is centered around 5 questions: 1. How does climate exacerbate root causes of conflict? 2. Where are hotspots of climate insecurities ? 3.What is the underlying structure of the climate, conflict, and socio-economic system? 4. Are climate and security policies coherent and integrated? 5. Are policy makers aware of the climate security nexus?
