SIPRI's video: Climate finance for sustaining peace

The session ‘Climate finance for sustaining peace - Part 2’ was organized in partnership with UNDP, the Climate Security Mechanism, the Peacebuilding Support Office, Interpeace and SIPRI at the 2022 Stockholm Forum on Peace and Development ( ), held on the theme ‘From a Human Security Crisis Towards an Environment of Peace'. This two-part session examines recent trends in access to climate finance, both public and private. It compares and contrasts diverse perspectives on addressing climate-related security risks in fragile and conflict-affected contexts. The back-to-back discussions are grounded in real-world experiences and discuss actionable policy recommendations, on the one hand, to promote climate financing in fragile and conflict affected areas, and, on the other, to seek opportunities for peacebuilding through climate action. Part one explores the gaps and opportunities in leveraging co-benefits of finance for climate change adaptation and access to energy for peace and security. Part two focuses on private finance in conflict-affected and fragile contexts. Both roundtables investigate mechanisms and standards required to incentivize and regulate investments to promote climate resilience and peace.
