Primary data from 120 households were analysed using descriptive statistics, the livelihood vulnerability index (LVI), the LVI based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (LVI-IPCC) framework and a Binary Logistic regression model. The overall LVI score (0.53) and the LVI-IPCC score (0.18) indicate moderate vulnerability, driven mainly by livelihood dependence on natural resources, climate variability and health-related challenges. The Binary Logistic regression results show that family size, access to alternative income sources, perceptions of climate change and access to loans significantly influence households’ adaptation behaviour.

Drawing on stakeholder theory, the resource-based view, and institutional theory, sustainability is operationalized through two indicators from the World Bank <i>Enterprise Surveys</i> (2019, 2023): renewable energy adoption and participation in the National Sustainable Development Strategy (NSDS). Competitiveness is measured by firms’ export orientation. Using propensity score matching (PSM), the analysis verifies both the Conditional Independence and Common Support assumptions, and tests robustness through covariate balance, alternative matching methods, and Rosenbaum bounds. Results show that sustainability adoption significantly increases the probability of exporting, though effects vary by sector: +18 percentage points in textiles, +6.7 in agro-food, and +10.4 in other industries, with NSDS participation reinforcing competitiveness to a lesser extent. These findings suggest that sustainability enhances competitiveness but in a sector-specific manner, calling for differentiated managerial strategies and targeted public policies.

In accordance with the neoclassical theoretical approach, this article analyzes the dynamics of adjusted net savings (ANSs) in Benin's regions in the face of the effects of climate change. On the basis of data from the National Local Finance Commission covering the period 2010–2019, the estimates are based on a GMM-system model and a quantile regression using the method of moments. The results reveal that a moderate positive variation in precipitation differences improves ANSs. However, this effect diminishes beyond a critical threshold of 110 mm for precipitation variations and 1290.867 mm for average precipitation, leading to a deterioration in ANSs of 10.80 points on average. On the other hand, global warming has no significant effect on this dynamic. These results show that extreme precipitation compromises the economic sustainability of Benin's regions. They highlight the need to set up a local hydrometeorological warning system based on critical intervention thresholds, as well as awareness campaigns for the preservation and rational use of natural resources.</p>","PeriodicalId":100261,"journal":{"name":"Climate Resilience and Sustainability","volume":"4 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cli2.70026","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145739835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the last two decades, it has experienced significant climate-related water issues, which have resulted in significant local flooding, decreasing water quality, and increasing climate change awareness. Similar to other jurisdictions across the world, the city has undertaken many climate resilience-building efforts and actions across multiple areas. This article undertakes a review of current climate resilience actions and efforts in the city, focusing on the areas of climate science and modeling, climate and water policies, city governance, and community responses to water-related climate hazards. The article develops and applies a new Community Climate Resilience Assessment Framework (CCRAF) to assess the research findings and evaluate the baseline state of climate change resilience in the city, particularly related to water governance challenges. Using the City of Toronto as an illustrative case study, this article demonstrates the importance of establishing a strong understanding of the current community, governance, and institutional contexts, as a means of identifying opportunities to increase climate and community resilience in cities. The results from the application of the CCRAF indicate current areas of strength in city resilience-building efforts include its focus on emissions mitigation, numerous climate and community initiatives, resident support programs, and incentives. Potential areas for improvement include integrating fragmented governance structures, building capacity and designating resource allocations for climate–water resilience efforts, and enhancing engagement of marginalized groups at the climate–water interface. On the basis of these findings, the article highlights the importance of and need for additional focus on climate–water adaptation, deepening community engagement of diverse perspectives, and centering Indigenous knowledges and perspectives to support governance innovations and increase overall climate resilience. The article also outlines the importance of baseline research and how this new framework can be applied in other communities and transboundary regions in Canada and beyond.</p>","PeriodicalId":100261,"journal":{"name":"Climate Resilience and Sustainability","volume":"4 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cli2.70025","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145739470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the resilience of ageing individuals, persons with disabilities, and people living with HIV during and after Cyclone Idai in Zimbabwe. The cyclone, which struck in March 2019, was one of the most destructive in the Southern Hemisphere, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. It exposed critical vulnerabilities among marginalised populations, including disrupted access to healthcare, mobility barriers, and increased health risks. These groups often struggle to access essential medication and adapt to altered environments in the aftermath of disasters. Using a case study of Manicaland Province, this research highlights the specific challenges faced by these populations and underscores the importance of inclusive disaster preparedness and response strategies. The study amplifies the voices of those often overlooked in disaster risk narratives and contributes to a broader understanding of resilience in the context of climate-related crises.

Mitigating the impact of climate change and building resilience of vulnerable farmers to adapt effectively have drawn the attention of international, regional, and national policy-making. This study investigates climate change adaptation in the Upper East Region, assessing government policies in water conservation and dry season irrigation to promote food security. The study adopted a case study design from which eight communities were selected from four administrative districts in the Sudan agro-ecological zone. Both primary and secondary data were collected. The instruments used for the primary data collection included focus group discussions and Key Informant Interviews, while the secondary data was obtained from key government institutions such as the Ghana Irrigation Development Authority (GIDA), the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MOFA), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The data was analyzed using content analysis. The findings of the study indicate that several policies exist in the country to deal with the impact of climate change. However, the implementation of these policies at the local levels was marred by challenges such as credit, sociocultural practices, and inadequate dissemination of climate information. The study recommends that in order to adapt to climate change, reduce rural poverty, and promote food security, investments should be geared towards promoting water conservation for dry-season irrigation farming. This would bring about diversification of the rural economy and sustain livelihoods.</p>","PeriodicalId":100261,"journal":{"name":"Climate Resilience and Sustainability","volume":"4 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cli2.70023","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145521734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It poses a serious threat to human health. Different catastrophic environmental disasters disproportionately affect the poor and vulnerable, especially in Bangladesh's coastal regions. The current study examines the mental and physical health risks faced by climate change in coastal areas. We employed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research, and the study was conducted among 280 individuals using a stratified random sampling method from Chittagong, Noakhali, Feni, and Lakshmipur districts. We quantitative data was collected via google form questionnaire consisting of sections on sociodemographic factors, natural disasters, man-made disasters, mental and physical health, injuries, community disruption, and anxiety. Cronbach's alpha, KMO, Bartlett's test, regression variable plots, and Pearson correlation analysis by descriptive analysis were used in this study. We found 52.5% of female injuries and mortality 40%, anxiety and depression 35%, crises caused by cyclones 26%, and flooding 48%. Moreover, we found gender, occupation, health crisis by natural and man-made disaster, injuries, death, and anxiety associated with health. The study revealed that most people had little knowledge about climate change and its impacts. Over the past decade, millions have been affected by disasters, yet a significant lack of awareness persists regarding the physical and mental effects of climate change. To tackle this issue, it is essential for the government and relevant stakeholders to initiate additional environmental projects, construct dams in coastal regions, conduct river excavations, and enforce regulations related to climate change.</p>","PeriodicalId":100261,"journal":{"name":"Climate Resilience and Sustainability","volume":"4 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cli2.70022","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145406905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
