Statements

Conflict risk refers to the increased likelihood of social or political unrest arising from various stressors, including social, economic, and environmental factors. While climate change doesn't directly cause conflict, it can worsen conditions like resource scarcity, food insecurity, and displacement, increasing tensions and instability, especially in regions with poor governance.
