| Summary: | What if social protection systems didn’t just respond to crises? What if they anticipated them?
In a new Academia.edu paper, CGIAR Climate Security researchers argue that the future of climate-sensitive social protection lies not in reinventing the wheel, but in enhancing existing systems with climate risk data, early warning tools, and adaptive governance.
With climate shocks becoming more frequent and severe, relying on reactive aid is unsustainable.
Integrating risk data into social protection offers a path toward resilience, equity, and cost-effectiveness. |
