October 7, 2021

CSSN Position Paper 4: Is Climate Obstruction Different in the Global South? Observations and a Preliminary Research Agenda

In anticipation of the COP26 Glasgow United Nations Summit on Climate Change, this position paper draws attention to a series of research themes and potential questions to ask on the role of climate obstruction in the Global South. These initial research themes and questions set the foundation for a body of research that could have direct implications for nation states in the Global South and their engagement in future action on climate change.
