Zusammenfassung

The interconnectedness of climate change and conflicts is manifold and increasingly being addressed in politics and research. However, there is still little research on the positive connections between sustainable, anti-hegemonic peace and climate justice. Necessary social-ecological transformations are accompanied by conflicts which must be addressed constructively. At the same time, obstacles such as (colonial) structures of domination, power, and inequality must be overcome. In this report [1], we combine climate policy strategies with civil conflict transformation and outline ideas towards shaping a sustained nurturing of the social- ecological transformation.
