Loading Events

How do violent conflict and climate change shape each other on the ground? This seminar presents new research on the politics and lived experiences of climate change in Myanmar’s post-coup rupture. It offers rare insights into how conflict-affected communities experience and interpret extreme weather and environmental disruption. The seminar also explores how climate and environmental issues are deeply entangled in struggles over power, territory, and legitimacy, involving the military, resistance movements, and civil society activists. The seminar is part of the MyCClimate project and draws on contributions to a new special issue of the Independent Journal of Burmese Scholarship.
