Adaptation Atlas Notebook: Analyze women's exposure to climate hazards / Analyser l'exposition des femmes aux aléas climatiques
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/179677
Abstract
This notebook examines how climate hazards intersect with gender by analyzing women’s exposure to heat, drought, and flooding across Africa. It overlays climate risk data with spatial distributions of the female population to show where women are most affected and how exposure varies by region. Users can explore country-specific patterns and compare…

Adaptation Atlas Notebook: Estimate economic returns on adaptation / Estimer les retours économiques de l’adaptation
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/179678
Abstract
This notebook provides an interactive tool to estimate the economic returns of climate adaptation practices in African agriculture. It combines evidence on adoption costs, productivity impacts, and climate-information benefits to calculate net cash flows for different adaptation interventions. Users can adjust assumptions and explore how outcomes vary by practice type and…

Climate, conflict, and resilience in Ethiopia: Reflections on the climate security stakeholder workshop
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/179655
Abstract
Given that a significant population of Ethiopia relies on subsistence agriculture, climate impacts are manifesting in various forms ranging from food insecurity and water scarcity emanating from prolonged droughts, climate induced displacement and migration. Agriculture accounts for between 40 –50% of Ethiopia’s gross domestic product (GDP). Increased competition over scarce resources…
