In an era of polycrisis, operationalising the humanitarian-development-peace nexus is crucial for finding solutions that create synergies between these areas, rather than looking at them individually. This is specially the case in conflict, fragile and displacement settings. In this episode, we speak with Grazia Pacillo, Senior Scientist and Co-Lead of CGIAR FOCUS Climate Security, about the climate-smart villages project, which tools it offers to avoid maladaptation and produce co-benefits, and the pathways through which it contributes to peace. We also speak about conflict sensitivity throughout the project cycle, the importance of partnerships, and how to build an evidence base for what (doesn't) work in climate security programming.Discover CGIAR'S Climate Security Programming Dashboard for Climate Finance (CSPDxCF).© adelphi global, all rights reserved adelphi global (https://adelphi-global.de/en) is an economically and politically independent, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting sustainability, enhancing environmental protection, improving education, expanding development cooperation, and strengthening international collaborations.
