Brazil’s vulnerability to climate change:

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This article aims to analyze Brazil’s vulnerability to climate change based on the Notre Dame Global Adaptation Initiative (ND-GAIN), from 1995 to 2021. The methodology applied was a bibliographical review on the concept of vulnerability and a case study of Brazil based on the ND-GAIN. As a result, it was observed that Brazil’s vulnerability has worsened or decreased in different moments. More recently, Brazil has relatively low vulnerability, but also low response capacity to face the challenges of climate change.
