Research by @ColumbiaSIPA PhD alum @sandraguilarg ('21), et al, finds that climate change increases the amount of intimate partner violence (IPV), through its disruptive impact on household livelihoods, among other channels.
1/3 New @UNUWIDER working paper with @AndreaSalazarD5: “Dry Spells, Work, and Gendered Violence in Mexico.”
We study a less visible cost of climate change: increased intimate partner violence following rainfall deficits.

Research by @ColumbiaSIPA PhD alum, et al, examines
lithium and development imaginaries in mining-dependent Peru and asks: "What are these imaginaries? What narratives underpin them? Who articulates and shares them, and from where? What forms of state (in)action are envisioned in relation to them?" sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Research by @ColumbiaSIPA PhD alum Alice Zhang, Sandra Baquié, et al, finds that "the Asia and Pacific region is a powerhouse for global growth and critical to the global green transition. The energy transition is equally important for the region’s long-term growth and economic resilience." imf.org/-/media/files/public…

Research by @ColumbiaSIPA PhD alum Florian Grosset-Touba and David Qihang Wu finds rural industrial workers, in Hawassa City, Ethiopia, who establish new network ties have the potential to help insure risks of living in an expensive city, which potentially has implications on workers turnover and migration decisions in the future.

The important interaction between trade and climate policy has sharpened the case for a coalition of countries that commit to price industrial emissions at home and use border adjustments to apply a carbon price to imports from nonmembers, argues a new #SciencePolicyArticle.
The authors propose a coalition that initially targets four emissions-intensive industries—iron and steel, aluminum, cement, and nitrogen fertilizers—which together account for roughly 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions. scim.ag/3VikObb
