 This paper analyses the allocation of climate adaptation aid in subnational and local jurisdictions in Ecuador. It examines the influence of physical and socioeconomic vulnerability and local capacity as independent variables of aid allocation. The study introduces projections of physical vulnerability to determine whether inter-generational aspects of climate justice are taken into account and uses geographically weighted regression models to study the spatial distribution of aid allocation. The findings show that physical and socioeconomic vulnerabilities influence adaptation aid allocation. However, projected changes in patterns of precipitation and temperatures are not associated with this variable. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of current climate aid is uneven, leaving clusters of vulnerable jurisdictions unattended. Finally, the study finds no association between local capacity and adaptation aid allocation. Findings suggest that the allocation of adaptation aid may not contribute to achieving adaptation scenarios where justice for current and future generations is central to decision-making.

Abstract

This paper analyses the allocation of climate adaptation aid in subnational and local jurisdictions in Ecuador. It examines the influence of physical and socioeconomic vulnerability and local capacity as independent variables of aid allocation. The study introduces projections of physical vulnerability to determine whether inter-generational aspects of climate justice are taken into account and uses geographically weighted regression models to study the spatial distribution of aid allocation. The findings show that physical and socioeconomic vulnerabilities influence adaptation aid allocation. However, projected changes in patterns of precipitation and temperatures are not associated with this variable. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of current climate aid is uneven, leaving clusters of vulnerable jurisdictions unattended. Finally, the study finds no association between local capacity and adaptation aid allocation. Findings suggest that the allocation of adaptation aid may not contribute to achieving adaptation scenarios where justice for current and future generations is central to decision-making.
如何分配气候变化适应援助?厄瓜多尔气候正义的研究
& # x0D;& # x0D;& # x0D;本文分析了厄瓜多尔次国家和地方司法管辖区气候适应援助的分配情况。它考察了物质和社会经济脆弱性以及地方能力作为援助分配的独立变量的影响。该研究引入了物理脆弱性预测来确定是否考虑了气候正义的代际方面,并使用地理加权回归模型来研究援助分配的空间分布。研究结果表明,自然脆弱性和社会经济脆弱性影响了适应援助的分配。然而,预估的降水和温度模式变化与这一变量无关。此外,当前气候援助的空间分布是不平衡的,导致一些脆弱的司法管辖区无人关注。最后,研究发现地方能力与适应援助分配之间没有关联。研究结果表明,在当代人和后代的正义是决策的核心的情况下,适应援助的分配可能无助于实现适应情景。& # x0D;& # x0D;
