When disasters and conflict collide’ is a podcast series that explores how conflict increases people’s vulnerabilities to disasters around the world. It examines what we can do to change this, in ways that not only help people cope with future disaster impacts but also contribute to peace. It asks why so little has been done to improve disaster risk reduction in fragile and conflict-affected contexts, and identifies examples of policies and programmes that have been successfully adapted to these contexts.
The podcast series is borne out of a two-year research project by ODI in cooperation with G.I.Z on behalf of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development.
