Emergenze secondarie Turchia e Siria

Authors C.Alessandro Mauceri
Description
Whenever extreme climatic events occur, such as the earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria in February 2023, attention is focused on the primary event. Often we forget that real problems begin later. In Turkey and Syria it was no different. Lack of services, starting with those aimed at the weakest minor and elderly, problems in reconstruction, diseases, total absence of networks (electric, water, sewage, road, etc.). Not to mention the damage to the economy. These are just some of the problems that make it difficult for survivors to return to normal life. Very often finding and recognizing corpses is not easy. They are secondary emergencies. A topic that we never talk about. But that, as they are demonstrating in Turkey and Syria, show that unpreparedness to extreme events can have devastating effects even months or years after the primary emergency has occurred.

Umweltwandel und menschliche Migration: Ein sozial-ökologischer Teufelskreis?

Principal investigator Kathleen Hermans (Principal Investigator)
Description
Das übergeordnete Ziel von MigSoKo ist es, die Mechanismen zu untersuchen, die den sich gegenseitig beeinflussenden Phänomenen Migration und Umweltwandel zugrunde liegen. Dazu sollen räumliche Muster von Migration und Umweltveränderungen identifiziert und begründet werden. Ebenso soll der kausale Zusammenhang von Umweltwandel, Bevölkerungsdruck und Migration sowie den ökologischen Konsequenzen von Migration erklärt werden. Hierzu werden im Projekt Daten und Methoden verschiedener Disziplinen auf verschiedenen räumlichen Ebenen (lokal, national, regional, global) systematisch miteinander kombiniert. So werden Zensus- und Fernerkundungsdaten mit Befragungen von Migranten, einer computergestützten Modellierung und partizipativen Szenarien verknüpft, um Mechanismen der umweltbedingten Abwanderung sowie ökologische Konsequenzen von Wanderungsbewegungen in Äthiopien zu identifizieren und zu erklären. Darauf basierend wird schließlich ein Instrument für politische Entscheidungsträger entwickelt, das eine systematische Integration von Migration und nachhaltiger Ressourcennutzung in Klimaanpassungspolitiken und -programmen ermöglicht. Damit zu erzielende Effekte sind beispielsweise eine verbesserte Existenzgrundlage der Haushalte vor Ort, eine regionale Verbesserung der Umweltbedingungen sowie überregionale Synergieeffekte.

Ökonomie des Klimawandels: Die Bewältigung von Klimaschocks in der Mongolei – Vulnerabilität, Vermögen und Migration

Principal investigator Kati Krähnert (Principal Investigator)
Description
Das Projekt untersucht die Auswirkungen von Klimaschocks auf das Wohlergehen und Verhalten von Haushalten in der Mongolei. Insbesondere werden dabei extreme Wetterereignisse, sogenannte Dzud-Katastrophen, betrachtet (siehe Kasten). Mit fortschreitendem Klimawandel ist damit zu rechnen, dass solche Klimaschocks häufiger und in extremeren Umfang auftreten werden. Im Rahmen des Projekts wird eine Panelhaushaltsbefragung zu Klimaschocks und sozio-ökonomischer Vulnerabilität von Haushalten in der westlichen Mongolei erhoben. Die Anpassungsstrategien von Nomaden zur Bewältigung von Klimaschocks und die Verteilungswirkungen von Klimaschocks werden anhand mikro-ökonometrischer Methoden analysiert.
