• Integrating food systems into the international climate law and policy framework (2026) · Review of European Comparative & International Environmental Law · doi

  Nevertheless, these developments remain tentative: binding commitments are scarce, climate finance flows remain inequitable, and most Nationally Determined Contributions have so far tended to address food‐related emissions and vulnerabilities in a partial and uneven manner, rather than integrating them systematically.

• Climate change and food security in sustainable finance: a South African perspective (2026) · Frontiers in Climate · doi

  The integration of sustainable finance into food-security discussion and policy is limited. Financial exclusion, poor institutional capacity, and lack of coordination are major obstacles to the implementation of finance mechanisms. There is a need for an integrated conceptual framework that connects climate factors, adaptation, food-system vulnerability, and food security outcomes.

• Climate change and food security in sustainable finance: a South African perspective (2026) · Frontiers in Climate · doi

  future investigations should work on the empirical validation of the proposed conceptual framework across different provinces, - determining which sustainable finance mechanisms are most successful in the production of long-term food-security resilience should be a focus of future research

• Exploring the impacts of climate change, institutional quality, and conflicts on food security in Africa (2026) · Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems · cited 3× · doi

  Limited empirical evidence exists on the joint and interactive effects of climate change, institutional quality, and conflict on food security. The study aims to address this gap by examining the complex relationships between these factors. The study seeks to provide new insights for policymakers to develop effective strategies to achieve sustainable food security in Africa.
