Climate Change in Africa: A Guidebook for Journalists

African journalists have critical roles to play in explaining the cause and effects of climate change, in describing what countries and communities can do to adapt, and in reporting on what governments and companies do, or not, to respond to these threats. Yet across Africa the media can and should do more to tell the story of climate change. UNESCO produced this book to help fill this important gap.

Pushed to the Limit: Evidence of Climate Change-Related Loss and Damage when People Face Constraints and Limits to Adaptation, Volume 2

This activity report provides the results of research which was done on loss and damage. Loss and damage occurs when there are barriers that impede planning and implementation of adaptation, and when physical and social limits to adaptation are reached or exceeded. Across the nine research sites, households struggle to manage climatic stressors on their household economy and their livelihoods. Despite their efforts to cope with the impact of extreme weather events and to adapt to slow-onset climatic changes, many incurred residual impact that they could not adequately manage.
