CLIMATE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT IN THE KURDISTAN REGION OF IRAQ
The impact of climate change is less noticeable and more localized in KRI than in central and southern Iraq. No climate-induced displacement, secondary displacement or failed returns were recorded in KRI this round. Additionally, the environmental hazards are largely confined to sand or dust storms and increased temperatures. Sand or dust storms can reduce water quality and disrupt agricultural activities, while increased temperatures heighten rates of evapotranspiration and raise demands for water. Moreover, 1 in 10 locations, mostly in Sulaymaniyah, witnessed drought.
