However, transmission channels and possible spillover effects remain understudied. This review paper summarizes recent works published on these intersections and portraits venues for further research. In this respect, late advances on the control of the impact of climate change-related risks on financial risks have been relevant. New climate scenario analyses, stress testing techniques, and disclosure requirements have been recently introduced. Existing risk management frameworks are being updated to integrate climate change-related risks. Yet, as the development of new practices continues, the need for assessing their effectiveness and limitations, from a risk management as well as a financial stability perspective, remains. In this vein, sufficient attention needs also to be paid to emerging market failures linked to climate change. These include noninsurability of risks and credit rationing or mispricing, potentially hampering adaptation and mitigation investments in some areas. Last, while focus has been put thus far mainly on climate change, time has come to accelerate the debate on the financial implications of other threats to the environment. This is notably the case of loss of biodiversity, by also taking stock of the work of the Conference of the Parties (COP).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":294,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability","volume":"65 ","pages":"Article 101388"},"PeriodicalIF":7.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138471879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on recollections of the past and observations of the present, local communities in the Sahel have developed extensive knowledge and understanding of their environment and climate that enables them to harness ecosystem services to support their livelihoods and survive environmental changes. Recent literature indicated that farmers’ knowledge and perceptions of changes in the local climate are largely consistent with observed meteorological data, except for the more heterogeneous precipitation change. This understanding of changes in their environment combined with their indigenous knowledge can be particularly useful in data-sparse regions such as the Sahel. This review highlights the importance of indigenous knowledge in enabling effective adaptation in the Sahel and beyond. It outlines some future research avenues for fostering indigenous knowledge-based adaptation, including addressing barriers to mainstreaming of indigenous knowledge into climate research and policy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":294,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability","volume":"65 ","pages":"Article 101389"},"PeriodicalIF":7.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1877343523001367/pdfft?md5=1f23236b36cf0f086660462b0236d4ff&pid=1-s2.0-S1877343523001367-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138471885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

State actor commitments are visions of what governments expect of their food systems by 2030, and their aspirations to achieve those expectations. This paper reviews pledges made by African Heads of State at the 2021 UNFSS and examines how responsive those commitments are to three dimensions of sustainable healthy diets, namely, nutrition and health, socio-economic, and environmental. Second, the paper assesses how responsive the commitments are to the World Health Organization’s “priority food systems policy actions” that include nutrition labeling, marketing regulation, public food procurement, fiscal policies, food fortification, reformulation, and food safety. We operationally define responsiveness as alignment or relatedness of the commitments to the dimensions of sustainable healthy diets, or the priority policies.

Thus, the relationship is circular, and conflict and disaster risk reinforce each other, and should not be dealt with separately.
