Promoting Peace through Climate-resilient Food Security Initiatives

Food insecurity, climate- and environment-related pressures, and violent conflict: Current knowledge This section summarizes the results of the literature review, with a particular focus on current knowledge about the linkages between food insecurity, cli- mate- and environment-related pressures, and violent conflict, the pathways between these variables and integrated approaches to tackle multipl. [...] The examples below provide a brief overview of some of the main pathways identified by the literature: (a) from food insecur- ity to violent conflict and vice versa; (b) from food insecurity to climate- and environment-related pressures, and vice versa; and (c) from violent conflict to climate- and environment-related pressures, and vice versa. [...] Examples of each can be found in Yemen, Mali and Niger.51 Independently of the model pursued, integrated food, climate and peace interventions need to be implemented in the same geographical area, depart from a common understanding of the conflict and how it is evolving, understand their place within the broader system and beyond the implementation location, and work towards a shared vision which. [...] The first relates to internal operational incentives, the second to entry points for sustainability and the broader impacts of peacebuilding and climate adap- tation initiatives in fragile contexts, and the third to partnerships. [...] It incentivizes the search for synergies and the strategic connection between concurrent, recurrent and succeeding projects.73 Trust funds and the so-called Nexus Chapeau Approach by the German Federal Foreign Office and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), piloted in 2019, are concrete examples of the parallel financing of humanitarian and development project compo.
