Climate hazards and local conflict in South Sudan: Exploring linkages and opportunities for resilience and stability

IOM

Bodhi conducted a study to examine the links between climate‐related and hydrometeorological hazards and local level conflict in South Sudan. The study supported the Enhancing Community Resilience and Local Governance (ECRP) project – funded by the World Bank – which aims to improve access to climate-resilient community infrastructure and services in South Sudan, with a focus on counties vulnerable to and affected by climate change. Utilising mixed methods, the study drew on quantitative data and GIS mapping to conduct geographical and temporal analysis, overlaying relevant conflict, climate, and displacement data.
