Non-technical summaryLoss and damage is treated as comprising separate ‘economic’ and ‘non-economic’ dimensions in research and policy. While this has contributed to greater awareness and visibility of non-economic values, our empirical insights show that the two are inextricably linked and that research aimed at informing policy must be better att...
Climate-induced losses and damages (L&D) are disproportionately impacting informal urban settlements worldwide, these settlements often face particularly high risks from climate-related hazards such as floods, heatwaves, and droughts. With often inadequate infrastructure, precarious land tenure, and limited access to basic services, residents of th...
Despite increasing adaptation efforts, climate-induced disasters continue to disproportionately impact urban communities, especially those living in informal settlements where inadequate infrastructure, precarious land tenure, and limited access to basic services exacerbate vulnerabilities. This study investigates how climate-related hazards such a...
While the adverse impacts of the climate crisis intensify, global urbanisation is taking place at an unprecedented scale and pace. Today, one in three urban habitants in the Global South already lives in informal settlements, whose dwellers could rise to well over three billion in less than 30 years (UN 2023), including due to migration in the cont...
People in the Majority World disproportionately experience Loss and Damage (L&D) related to climate change. Policymakers and researchers are exploring ways to address L&D. However, significant knowledge gaps remain, including how to address what has been termed Non-Economic Loss and Damage (NELD). We contribute to filling this knowledge gap by anal...
Apart from the establishment of the Expert Group on Non-Economic Losses (NELs), little effort has been made to address Non-Economic Loss and Damage (NELD) comprehensively within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Yet outside of the UNFCCC, researchers and practitioners have made more substantial efforts to conceptua...
Considering the particular vulnerabilities of informal urban settlements, it is of utmost importance to ensure speed, eligibility, adequacy and access to Loss and Damage finance and to apply innovative approaches which comprehensively respond to their specific characteristics and needs.Consequently, this policy brief gives seven key recommendations...
There is a limited understanding of the intangible and subjective losses and damages from climate change people experience and how to address them. Fortunately, the number of studies explicitly focusing on ‘non-economic’ losses and damages is growing. However, these assessments are commonly shaped by top-down, standardised conceptualisations, resul...
A report on the what, why, how, where and who of non-economic loss and damage, in addition to a section on how people, institutions, and governments can respond.
