SIP1823 "August 2018". This work is funded by the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs as part of SIPRI’s Climate Change and Security Project. We are grateful to the reviewers and editors,as well as for comments received by Ashok Swain, Aklilu Desta, Malin Mobjörk, Gary Milante and other colleagues at SIPRI. This SIPRI Insights presents a concise analysis of four regional IGOs—two in Asia and two in Africa. The main findings show that, in various ways, climate-related security risks have found their way into the IGOs’ policy frameworks and institutional discourse. Furthermore, it was found that both the regional security context and the regions’ vulnerability to climate change affect the framing of climate-related security risks.
