From Climate Risk to Resilience: Unpacking the Economic Impacts of Climate Change in Zambia

This report is a country study on Zambia, part of a broader series titled "From Climate Risk to Resilience" produced by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) for the African Climate Foundation (ACF). It outlines a framework for analyzing climate change impacts across four areas: climate profile projections, economic sector implications, existing government adaptation measures, and strategic recommendations for funding and resilience.

• The report is structured into four primary sections: an analysis of recent and projected climate profile changes including scenario modelling; an assessment of implications for key economic sectors and macroeconomic factors such as trade and fiscal impact; a review of government adaptation priorities and challenges; and strategic suggestions for mobilizing funding for resilience.
• The document is part of a series of country studies commissioned by the African Climate Foundation (ACF) and produced by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), with support from the CGIAR Research Initiative on Foresight, focusing on climate-vulnerable and critical economic sectors in Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, and Zambia.
