Colombia’s longstanding internal conflict and the country’s contribution to climate change share one common root cause: land concentration. Policies to strengthen access to land and to ensure sustainable land use might therefore hold the key to promoting peacebuilding in Colombia, while simultaneously reducing emissions. The Climate Diplomacy initiative is a collaborative effort of the German Federal Foreign Office in partnership with adelphi (http://www.climate-diplomacy.org).
