The report ¡°Shock Waves: Managing the Impacts of Climate Change on Poverty¡± commissioned 14 background papers in collaboration with research institutions across the globe to provide the report with innovative analyses to provide insights on the relationship between climate change and poverty. These papers examined the impacts of climate change on poverty, through agriculture, ecosystems, natural disasters, and health, as well as strategies to reduce these impacts. While we cannot do justice to each paper through the report itself, this page provides full access to the papers commissioned so interested readers can delve into the full details behind each analysis.
