Episode 36: Climate, peace and security in Yemen: How deteriorating rights of women and minorities affect the whole of society

Since 2014, Yemen has been ravaged by civil war. Our guest today - Yemeni journalist, writer and activist Hind Al-Eryani - brings to light how the war is impacting the lives of women, children, LGBTQ+ communities and religious minorities. Hind explains how women's righs have benn deteriorating in Yemen, and the ways in which this affects society as a whole, for example by hindering climate adaptation. We look into the impacts of climate change on resources, particularly water, and how this fed into insecurity dynamics in the lead up to the conflict, and we discuss whether Germany's feminist foreign policy approach can spill over to women affected by climate change in insecurity worldwide.© adelphi research, all rights reserved adelphi research (https://adelphi-research.de/en) is a non-profit independent think tank for environmental and development policy research and analysis.
