The sustainability–peace nexus in crisis contexts: how the Rohingya escaped the ethnic violence in Myanmar, but are trapped into environmental challenges in Bangladesh

By ICCCAD
April 19, 2021
in :  Article, Journal Article, Publications
584

Abstract Because of ethnic and cultural violence in Myanmar, approximately a million Rohingya fled to neighboring Bangladesh starting from August 2017, in what the UN has called a “textbook example of ethnic cleansing”. Those arriving in Bangladesh were able to escape decade-long ethnic violence in Myanmar, but the Rohingya’s immediate destination, Cox’s Bazar district is one of the most climate-vulnerable …

By ICCCAD

1,243

Abstract In 2015, the parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) agreed on a long-term plan to limit global warming to below 2°C or 1.5°C through internationally coordinated, but nationally driven actions.

By ICCCAD
February 12, 2021
in :  Journal Article, Publications
579

Abstract Adapting to the impacts of climate change is one of the most urgent priorities of our time. Given that the impacts of climate change are experienced at local scales, it makes sense that adaptation should occur locally, and yet, despite this, locals often have little control over how adaptation is funded, designed and delivered in order to climate-proof their …

Principles for locally led adaptation

By ICCCAD
January 28, 2021
in :  Issue paper, Publications

Recovery from COVID-19 provides a historic opportunity for giving greater voice to local people — especially women, youth, children, disabled, displaced and marginalised ethnic groups — and putting agency over their own adaptation into their hands. To support this shift, we present eight principles for locally led adaptation and invite adaptation stakeholders to join us on a complementary ten-year learning …

By ICCCAD
January 17, 2021
in :  Policy Brief, Publications
727

Executive Summary We provide a first assessment on how 15 local communities in the Global South are building resilience in the face of COVID-19. We found that communities used many different coping strategies, spanning multiple social domains of resilience, when responding to a crisis. Social domains of resilience not only imply communities having access to capital, but also that people …

December 12, 2020
in :  Journal Article, Publications

Abstract The forced displacement of over 700,000 Rohingyas from Myanmar to Bangladesh since the crackdown in August 2017 has resulted in a critical humanitarian and environmental crisis. Groundwater is the primary source of drinking water in the camps that were constructed to provide shelter for the refugee population. The current study explores occurrence of Mn in groundwater in the Rohingya …
