The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) is organising a scenario development workshop in Central Asia to identify potential security implications of climate change in this region. adelphi supports the OSCE in preparing the workshop, which will be conducted in the first quarter of 2012.
The consequences of climate change begin to unfold in more and more regions of the world and will increasingly do so. Preventive measures and early actions are necessary to avoid negative impacts. However, there is only limited knowledge on concrete impacts, making responses difficult to plan. Scenarios may support decision-making by highlighting the potential range of risks and mitigating actions.
The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) is therefore organising a scenario development workshop in the South Caucasus, including Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, to identify potential security implications of climate change in this region. adelphi supports the OSCE in preparing the workshop.
These activities are thereby part of a larger project jointly implemented by the OSCE and the European Environment Agency (EEA). The aim of the larger project is to generate policy recommendations for the respective member states with a view to mitigate the worst consequences of climate change. Three scenario workshops have already been conducted in Ukraine (February 2011), Serbia (October 2011) and Tajikistan (November 2011).
