Susanne Wolfmaier
Master of Arts Political Science
Advisor
Susanne Wolfmaier is an Advisor in climate foreign policy, climate fragility and conflict risks. To her, the effects of climate change on livelihoods and human security represent a major challenge. It is critical that international actors better understand climate-related security risks and know the available options to mitigate these risks.
“I want foreign policy to focus more on the effects of climate change. At adelphi, I can help foreign policy processes as well as stabilisation and peacebuilding initiatives better address the consequences of the climate crisis.”
