Slow onset processes have been increasingly linked to human mobility in the global policy space.
Droughts are significant drivers of land degradation, which in turn has adverse effects on resource-dependent rural populations and can potentially lead to livelihood losses and subsequent migration o
As sea level rise drives saltwater farther inland, drinking water supplies of some coastal cities will be contaminated.
Sea-level rise poses a significant threat to Small Island Developing States (SIDS) due to the concentration of people, assets, and infrastructure in coastal zones.
Loss and Damage studies have tended to focus on rapid-onset events with lesser attention to slow-onset events such as drought.
Sea level rise and land subsidence — induced flooding are projected to have severe impacts on highly populated Asian deltaic cities.
This article synthesizes recent empirical literature on human mobility linked to slow-onset impacts of climate change.
Protected areas have become a vital component of the global biodiversity conservation strategy due to the increasing extinction and vulnerability of different species in the 21st century. In Ghana, besides the shared governance of protected area management, there also exists the governance by indigenous community models in which traditional structures (clans and stools) use taboos, deities, totems, and myths as tools in managing protected areas. To study the effectiveness of the various governance systems in protected area management, we compared species diversity, vegetation structure, and biomass stock of an area under shared governance (wildlife sanctuary) to communal governance (sacred grove).
The inclusion of people with intellectual disability in cultural and civic activities is an important point for discussion, particularly in the context of supporting the social sustainability of our l
