Research Group Climate Change and Security, University of Hamburg
Mission
CLISEC conducts multi-disciplinary research and education on the potential security risks, social instabilities and conflicts induced by climate change and on possible strategies for international cooperation, conflict management and sustainable peace. Their analysis is based on an integrated framework of the linkages and feedbacks between climate change, natural resources, human needs and societal stability. Current research focuses on the development of data and modeling tools suitable to assess and stabilize the climate-society interaction on global and local scales, with a specific emphasis on regional climate hot spots.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
