In this study, we investigate how climate change can potentially change the vulnerability to poverty using a panel data set in Indonesia. We focus on the effect of drought and flood, two of the commonly observed disasters there. Our simulation results indicate that vulnerability to poverty may increase substantially as a result of climate change in Indonesia. JEL Classification: I32, O10ADBI Working Paper 622 T. Fujii

Analisis Analisis Peran dan Tantangan Sukuk Hijau Bagi Ketahanan Perubahan Iklim Pada Wilayah Rentan Selama Pandemi Covid-19

“…Merujuk pada kajian Fujii (2016), Indonesia termasuk negara pertama yang mengalami keberangkatan iklim (climate departure), yaitu saat suhu rata-rata menjadi sangat terpengaruh oleh perubahan iklim. Keberangkatan iklim berpotensi akan berdampak signifikan terhadap kehidupan masyarakat di Indonesia, khususnya masyarakat miskin, karena masih ada sebagian kecil masyarakat yang masih berada di bawah garis kemiskinan atau hanya sedikit di atas garis kemiskinan.…”
