Climate & Security

Belgian development cooperation is confronted with insecurity and instability in certain regions. This
causes problems and delays in the execution of development cooperation programmes. The policy supporting research project on Climate and Security wants to assess to which extent the insecurity and instability problems are caused and/
or exacerbated by climate change. Next to this, the research also looks into the challenge of how Belgian development cooperation, with specific adaptation measures, could contribute to a solution for these security related problems caused or aggravated by climate change.
