Cities are not neutral spaces that guarantee equality for all; on the contrary, they reflect and reproduce inequalities: gender, class, ethnicity, age, nationality, sexual orientation, and their intersectionality.
\nGender inequality in the city is a form of violence that has little visibility in the public sphere and is little recognized. This is why it is necessary to maintain a space for debate to encourage reflection and raise awareness about the issue, an exchange that will allow us to advance women's equality in the cities and achieve a life free of violence<\/p>\n<\/td>

The Disaster Risk Management (DRM) Systems Analysis Guide provides a set of tools and methodologies to assess the existing structures and capacities of institutions in charge of Disaster Risk Management (DRM) at national, district and local levels, in order to improve their effectiveness and integrate DRM issues into development planning, with special emphasis on disaster-prone areas, vulnerable sectors and population groups. Through the strategic use of the Guide, it is expected to improve the understanding of the strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats facing existing DRM institutional structures and their implications for ongoing institutional change processes. <\/p>\n<\/td>

This essay aims to confront some beliefs rooted in public opinion about the relationship between climate change and disasters related to hydrometeorological events. Through a review of specialized literature, it is shown that the issue of disasters is more linked to a problem of increased vulnerability than to an increase in natural hazards. Despite the fact that climate change could probably increase the magnitude and frequency of natural hazards in the future, adaptation to climate change should begin by solving current vulnerability problems and by focusing on land use planning as a long-term adaptation process.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Costa Rica is a nation with a vast wealth of water resources; however, recently the country has faced water conflicts due to social, economic, legal, and political impediments in response to limited water availability during El Ni\u00f1o events and inefficient use of its water resources. This study presents a spatial distribution and temporal analysis of water conflicts in Costa Rica from 2005 to 2015. In total, 719 water conflicts were analyzed of which 54% were among private individuals and government. The largest urban areas and the Grande de T\u00e1rcoles basin were identified as the main \u2018hot spot\u2019 for the conflicts. Water conflicts were mainly caused by spills of wastewater, water pollution, water shortage, infrastructure damage, and flooding, and can be predicted using a multiple linear model including the population size and the number of hydro-meteorological events (R2=0.77).<\/p>\n<\/td>

The growing threat of abrupt and irreversible climate changes must compel political and economic action on emissions.
\nPoliticians, economists and even some natural scientists have tended to assume that tipping points1 in the Earth system \u2014 such as the loss of the Amazon rainforest or the West
\nAntarctic ice sheet \u2014 are of low probability and little understood. Yet evidence is mounting that these events could be more likely than was thought, have high impacts and are intercon- nected across different biophysical systems, potentially committing the world to long-term irreversible changes.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Afforestation is an important greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation strategy but the efficacy of commercial forestry is disputed. Here, we calculate the potential GHG mitigation of a UK national planting strategy of 30,000 ha yr\u22121 from 2020 to 2050, using dynamic life cycle assessment. What-if scenarios vary: conifer-broadleaf composition, harvesting, product breakouts, and decarbonisation of substituted energy and materials, to estimate 100-year GHG mitigation. <\/p>\n<\/td>

Aquatic foods from marine and freshwater systems are critical to the nutrition, health, livelihoods, economies and cultures of billions of people worldwide, but climate-related hazards may compromise their ability to provide these benefits. Here, we esti- mate national-level aquatic food system climate risk using an integrative food systems approach that connects climate hazards impacting marine and freshwater capture fisheries and aquaculture to their contributions to sustainable food system outcomes. We show that without mitigation, climate hazards pose high risks to nutritional, social, economic and environmental outcomes worldwide\u2014especially for wild-capture fisheries in Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and Small Island Developing States. For countries projected to experience compound climate risks, reducing societal vulnerabilities can lower climate risk by margins similar to meeting Paris Agreement mitigation targets. System-level interventions addressing dimensions such as governance, gender equity and poverty are needed to enhance aquatic and terrestrial food system resilience and provide investments with large co-benefits towards meeting the Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Tropical regions are frequently affected by intense floods causing substantial human and economic losses. A proper management of floods and the prevention of disasters is, however, often hampered by a generalized pau- city of systematic discharge measurements, which in turn renders any assessment of the frequency and magni- tude of extreme floods challenging or impossible. Here, we analyze the suitability of trees impacted by floods and their growth-ring records to provide insights into past flood activity and to allow estimation of their magnitude. We base this exploratory study on the extreme floods triggered by the passage of tropical storm Nate on October 5, 2017 and investigate whether dendrogeomorphic approaches can be employed to date and quantify floods in the catchment of tropical R\u00edo General (Costa Rica). <\/p>\n<\/td>

This document presents some reflections on a human right recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and ratified by various international instruments, particularly the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which refers to the right to \"adequate housing\" as part of the right to an \"adequate life\". This implies a non-restrictive concept of housing, (i.e. not limited to \"a roof over one's head\") but as habitat in an integral sense, i.e. the right to an environment that guarantees services, accessibility to the different activities that make life possible, environmental quality and safety, as a human right of all people.

During the present decade, the debate on the relationship between disasters, development, environment and sustainability, and its implications for risk and disaster management, has matured at an accelerated pace. The topic has become a point of reference and reflection, almost compulsory. This is due, among other factors, to the following circumstances: the emphasis placed on the subject of risk reduction and development during\n\nthe International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction, the unprecedented losses generated by disasters associated with Hurricane Andrew in Florida, the Mississippi River floods and the Northridge and Kobe earthquakes, the generally accepted fact, that the number and impact of disasters is rapidly increasing worldwide, the idea that factors such as global climate change, the introduction of new hazardous technologies and the marked increase in levels of social vulnerability could create conditions conducive to a dramatic increase in the number of disasters in the future.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Climate scientists have long emphasized the importance of cli- mate tipping points like thawing permafrost, ice sheet disintegra- tion, and changes in atmospheric circulation. Yet, save for a few fragmented studies, climate economics has either ignored them or represented them in highly stylized ways. We provide unified esti- mates of the economic impacts of all eight climate tipping points covered in the economic literature so far using a meta-analytic integrated assessment model (IAM) with a modular structure. The model includes national-level climate damages from rising tem- peratures and sea levels for 180 countries, calibrated on detailed econometric evidence and simulation modeling. <\/p>\n<\/td>

This article seeks a reflection on the need for a comprehensive approach to risk management, projecting into the future, whose main challenge will be the reduction of disaster risk with a change of approach, going from a vision linked to the unpredictability and inevitability of its occurrence, to consider it as a problem linked to the processes of productive sustainable development of organizations, communities, regions and countries, in society, which have a positive impact on the community, hand in hand with the use, planning and management of the territory they occupy. This renewed integral approach implies a fundamental component, the reduction of existing vulnerability, as well as the promotion and encouragement of schemes for the transformation of society.<\/p>\n<\/td>

In Colombia, the Organic Law of Territorial Planning (LOOT) is one of the tools that allowed the restructuring of the National System of Risk Management, generating that the territorial entities could be organized in a joint management at the central level, under the principles of decentralization, coordination, complementarity and concurrence; this with the objective of promoting coordinated strategic actions towards risk awareness, risk reduction and emergency management. In this way, the LOOT has allowed improving the competencies of the territorial entities for disaster risk management, through the transfer of greater autonomy from the national level to the departments and municipalities, as well as the strengthening of municipal associations such as the case of the Metropolitan Area of the Aburr\u00e1 Valley and its intermunicipal risk management plan -Red Riesgos.<\/p>\n<\/td>

The three recent Special Reports of the IPCC provide an opportunity to understand overarching climate risk, as they cover a wide diversity of risks to natural and human systems. Here we develop a scoring system to translate qualitative IPCC risk assessments into risk scores that, when aggregated, describe global risk from climate change. By the end of this century, global climate risk will increase substantially with greenhouse gas emissions compared to today (composite risk score increase of two- and fourfold under RCP2.6 and RCP8.5, respectively). Comparison of risk levels under +1.5 \u00b0C and +2 \u00b0C suggests that every additional 0.5 \u00b0C of global warming will contribute to higher risk globally (by about a third). Societal adaptation has the potential to decrease global climate risk substantially (by about half) under all RCPs, but cannot fully prevent residual risks from increasing (by one-third under RCP2.6 and doubling under RCP8.5, compared to today<\/p>\n<\/td>

In Costa Rica, despite their relative low frequency, tsunamis could pose risk to coastal communities. The integration of geophysical and geological information allows the interpretation of possible rupture areas for which tsunami propagation and inundation is evaluated through numerical modeling along the Caribbean of Costa Rica and areas adjacent to the tsunamigenic ear-thquake that occurred in 1991 (Mw 7,7). The results show that the tsunami threat in the Caribbean of Costa Rica arises particularly from earthquakes generated in the North Panama Deformation Belt. In addition, it is shown that medium-magnitude earthquakes (Mw ~ 7) in high-angle faults can cause local tsunamis. This work can be used as a basis for the generation of evacuation maps and awareness of the tsunami threat in the area<\/p>\n<\/td>

Risk management, and local risk management in particular, has strongly emerged over the last four years. This has been particularly noticeable in Central America, but is also widespread in many other Latin American countries. During this time both the concept and practice has evolved, however, the diversity of approaches, interpretations and practices that have been developed, coined by the very notion of risk management, suggest that there is still no clarity and consensus as to its meaning.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Climate change has become a global burden, requiring strong institutional quality and will- ingness to mitigate future impacts. Though emissions are transboundary and have the ten- dency of spreading from high emitting countries to low emitting countries, regional exposure, sensitivity, and adaptation readiness determine the extent of climate effects. The existing literature focuses on immediate drivers and damages of emission effects, failing to account for underlying mechanisms occurring via the nexus between emission levels, economic, social, and governance adaptation readiness. Here, this study broadens the scope of previous attempts and simultaneously examines climate change vulnerability across sectors including ecosystem services, food, health, human habitat, infrastructure, and water. <\/p>\n<\/td>

This paper provides a timely review of progress and ongoing research needs in tsunami hazard and risk science since the most recent major event, the Tohoku tsunami in 2011. The tsunami community has made significant progress in understanding tsunami hazard from seismic sources. However, this is only part of the inputs needed to effectively manage tsunami risk, which should be understood more holistically, including non-seismic sources, vulnerability in different dimensions and the overall societal effects, in addition to its interaction with other hazards and cascading effects. Moreover, higher standards need to be achieved as far as the management of subjective choices and uncertainty quantification, which largely govern the basis for tsunami risk decision making.<\/p>\n<\/td>

River floods frequently occur when tropical cyclones hit land. Nonetheless, systematic, long-term discharge data remain rather scarce in many tropical countries, which prevents proper analysis of peak discharges occurring during floods. The T\u00e9rraba catchment is the biggest and most dynamic catchment in Costa Rica. In this study, we developed regional flood-frequency analyses combining tree-ring based estimation and measurement of peak discharge at monitoring stations during tropical cyclones to derive flood quartiles. Flood quartiles were combined with the Topographic Wetness Index (TWI) to determine regional flood hazards along floodplains. <\/p>\n<\/td>

Disaster risk depends not only on the possibility of the occurrence of intense natural events or phenomena, but also on the conditions of vulnerability that favor or facilitate the occurrence of disasters when such phenomena occur. Vulnerability is closely linked to the social processes that take place in hazard-prone areas and usually has to do with the fragility, susceptibility or lack of resilience of the population to hazards of different types.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Global bottled water consumption has largely increased (14.35 billion gallons in 2020) during the last decade since consumers are demanding healthier and safer forms of rehydration. Bottled water sources are normally labeled as mountainous and pristine mineral springs (fed by rainfall and snow\/glacier melting processes), deep groundwater wells or industrial purified water. The advent of numerous international and national-based bottled water brands has simultaneously raised a worldwide awareness related to the water source and chemical content traceability Here, we present the first database of stable isotope compositions and reported chemical concentrations from imported and national-based bottled waters in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n<\/td>

The main objective of this study is to identify the relevance of gender issues in the causes and consequences of climate change. The main results show that these are heterogeneous and in many cases aggravate the gender inequalities that historically exist in society. The differentiated impacts of the effects of global warming on men and women require public adaptation and mitigation policies that recognize the different needs of both genders and promote the mainstreaming of a gender perspective in public policies to address climate change. In this regard, some progress has been made in the region, but there is still significant room for improvement. <\/p>\n<\/td>

\nto examine links between disaster risk, hazards, vulnerability, risk management, and social protection (SP). The paper makes the case that it is important to mainstream social protection policies into the disaster risk management (DRM) agenda and, vice versa as a means to improve household and community resilience to natural disasters. The paper proposes different types of actions that can help households and communities better manage risks related to natural hazards, especially by promoting SP policies and programs that could reduce vulnerability through various ex-ante actions that strengthen assets and livelihoods, and improved \u201cplanned coping\u201d, which are ex-ante interventions that help households and communities recover and reconstruct assets and livelihoods after a hazard event is manifested.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is the second most disaster-prone region in the world and Brazilranks high on the list of populations most affected by recurring climatic shocks, particularly droughts and floods’. The intense rainfall and landslides that devastated the Serrana region of Rio de Janeiro in January 2011 marked the beginning of substantial changes in Brazil’s approach to disaster management, includingnew norms, policies and structures to guide and coordinate the civil defence at national, state and local levels. In terms of disaster data, the creation of an Integrated Disaster Information System (S2ID)represented a major step towards coordination and transparency, and improved accessibility of nationaldisaster-related data. However, gaps connected to categorisation, terminology and methodology continueto challenge the achievement of reliable information regarding the impact of disasters on communities
\nand, specifically, on population displacement.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Central America is affected by geological and hydrometeorological hazards that, together with its high exposure and vulnerability, comprise risky scenarios for disasters. This region presents a significant number of casualties and economic losses due to disasters every year. We present an analysis of the origin of extensive risks (high-frequency-low-magnitude hazards occurrences) and intensive (low-frequency-high magnitude hazard occurrences) in Central America from 1990 to 2015 using the disaster databases EM-DAT and DesInventar. <\/p>\n<\/td>

Mitigation pathways exploring end-of-century temperature targets often entail temperature overshoot. Little is known about the additional climate risks generated by overshooting temperature. Here we assessed the benefits of limiting overshoot. We computed the probabilistic impacts for different warming targets and overshoot levels on the basis of an ensemble of integrated assessment models. We explored both physical and macroeconomic impacts, including persistent and non-persistent climate impacts. We found that temperature overshooting affects the likelihood of many critical physical impacts, such as those associ- ated with heat extremes. Limiting overshoot reduces risk in the right tail of the distribution, in particular for low-temperature targets where larger overshoots arise as a way to lower short-term mitigation costs. We also showed how, after mid-century, overshoot leads to both higher mitigation costs and economic losses from the additional impacts. The study highlights the need to include climate risk analysis in low-carbon pathways.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Projections of climate change impacts on marine ecosystems have revealed long-term declines in global marine animal biomass and unevenly distributed impacts on fisheries. Here we apply an enhanced suite of global marine ecosystem models from the Fisheries and Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (Fish-MIP), forced by new-generation Earth system model outputs from Phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), to provide insights into how projected climate change will affect future ocean ecosystems. Compared with the previous generation CMIP5-forced Fish-MIP ensemble, the new ensemble ecosystem simulations show a greater decline in mean global ocean animal biomass under both strong-mitigation and high-emissions scenarios due to elevated warming, despite greater uncertainty in net primary production in the high-emissions scenario. Regional shifts in the direction of biomass changes highlight the continued and urgent need to reduce uncertainty in the projected responses of marine ecosystems to climate change to help support adaptation planning.<\/p>\n<\/td>

This paper proposes a risk prevention strategy at a local and gender-sensitive scale, seeking to contribute to delineate ways to concretize inclusive processes of prevention and risk reduction.The strategy is based on a participatory action-research conducted between 2018 and 2019 with women from Colonia Palma Sola FOVISSSTE, in the periphery of Acapulco de Juarez, Mexico. Methodologically, the work included three complementary axes of action: involvement and sensitization, diagnosis and planning, and linkage and action. This work emphasizes the importance of generating strategies sustained by engagement processes that seek to intertwine risk management and local development, and linkage processes that allow the creation of alliances with governmental and non-governmental actors. It also highlights three key challenges to the development of gender-sensitive prevention processes at the local level: breaking down gender stereotypes and roles, designing processes and activities tailored to women's interests, needs and capacities, and promoting women's empowerment, in particular by improving their self-esteem and expanding their ability to relate to and create multisectoral alliances.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Efforts to protect tropical ecosystems aim at implementing biological corridors across the national territory of Costa Rica. However, potential near-future climate change challenges the effectiveness of such conservation measures. For this purpose, we developed near-future climate change scenarios at high spatial resolution using open-access global data from the Copernicus Climate Data Store (CDS). These projections resulted from downscaling (to a 1km \u00b2 national grid) and quantile-mapping bias-correction of the Essential Climate Variables Global Circulation Model (ECV_GCM) ensemble mean from the CDS using a moderate Representative Concentration Pathway 4.5 (RCP4.5). Projections were evaluated with limited local station data and applied to generate future ecosystem indicators (Holdridge Life Zones, HLZs). <\/p>\n<\/td>

High-level assessments of climate change impacts aggregate multiple perils into a common framework. This requires incorporating multiple dimensions of uncertainty. Here we propose a methodology to transparently assess these uncertainties within the \u2018Reasons for Concern\u2019 framework, using extreme heat as a case study. We quantitatively discriminate multiple dimensions of uncertainty, including future vulnerability and exposure to changing climate hazards. High risks from extreme heat materialise after 1.5\u20132 \u00b0C and very high risks between 2\u20133.5 \u00b0C of warming. Risks emerge earlier if global assessments were based on national risk thresholds, underscoring the need for stringent mitigation to limit future extreme heat risks.<\/p>\n<\/td>

This paper investigates potential avenues for reducing economic losses resulting from natural hazards, and discusses ex ante and ex post issues affecting disaster risk management. It also assesses how both types of measures can be jointly used to reduce the economic impact of disasters on sovereign governments and the IDB. The authors argue in favor of a balanced risk management strategy, which utilizes both ex ante and ex post measures to manage different risk layers. Effective reduction of disaster risk can be aided by a risk management policy that appropriately identifies at-risk parties, the level of risk, and the available responses. The bulk of the paper treats these topics in the context of the institutional and incentive issues that may affect their implementation. <\/p>\n<\/td>

We explore the risk that self-reinforcing feedbacks could push the Earth System toward a planetary threshold that, if crossed, could prevent stabilization of the climate at intermediate temperature rises and cause continued warming on a \u201cHothouse Earth\u201d pathway even as human emissions are reduced. Crossing the threshold would lead to a much higher global average temperature than any interglacial in the past 1.2 million years and to sea levels significantly higher than at any time in the Holocene. We examine the evidence that such a threshold might exist and where it might be. If the threshold is crossed, the resulting trajectory would likely cause serious disruptions to ecosystems, society, and economies. Col- lective human action is required to steer the Earth System away from a potential threshold and stabilize it in a habitable interglacial-like state. Such action entails stewardship of the entire Earth System\u2014biosphere, climate, and societies\u2014and could include decarbonization of the global economy, enhancement of biosphere carbon sinks, behavioral changes, technological innovations, new governance arrangements, and trans- formed social values.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Droughts are causing severe damages to water abundant tropical countries worldwide. Their resilience to water shortages tends to be low, often due to a lack of water infrastructure. Moreover, drought characteristics and risk in tropical catchments are poorly understood, which makes it difficult to select adequate adaptation measures. Thus, reliable methodologies to evaluate spatially distributed drought risk in data scarce tropical 20 catchments are urgently needed. We combined drought hazard and vulnerability related information to assess drought risk in four rural tropical study regions, the Muria\u00e9, subcatchment of the Para\u00edba do Sul in Southeast Brazil, the Tempisque-Bebedero basin in North Costa Rica, the upper part of the Magdalena basin, Colombia and the Srepok, a Mekong tributary shared by Cambodia and Vietnam. Drought hazard was defined based on three variables, daily river 25 discharge and precipitation and vegetation condition. Conditions below defined thresholds were transformed into a cumulative drought index. <\/p>\n<\/td>
