Polycrisis Governance in Southern Africa: Climate Stress, Mobility, and the Limits of Fragmented Policy Responses Polycrisis Governance in Southern Africa: Climate Stress, Mobility, and the Limits of Fragmented Policy Responses =================================================================================================================== - Polycrisis - Policy recommendations - Researchers Policy brief no. 17 | September 2026 By Margaret Monyani Southern Africa is increasingly shaped by a polycrisis in which climate stress, economic insecurity, food-system fragility, urban pressure, and cross-border mobility interact rather than unfold in isolation. Recent evidence shows worsening drought and food insecurity, rising disaster displacement, and mounting pressure on human settlements and public services. The 2023/24 El Niño shock pushed multiple countries into national emergencies and contributed to a major regional food-security crisis, while longer-term warming, rainfall variability, and compound extremes continue to erode livelihoods across rural and urban areas alike. In this context, migration and displacement should not be treated as residual humanitarian outcomes; they are central indicators of whether governance systems can anticipate risk, protect people, and maintain legitimacy. - [ 17-monyani-polycrisis-governance-in-southern-africa-climate-stress-mobility-and-limits-of-fragmented-policy-responses\_1.pdf (PDF, 281 KB) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/17-monyani-polycrisis-governance-in-southern-africa-climate-stress-mobility-and-limits-of-fragmented-policy-responses_1.pdf) Other resources --------------- - ### Bringing Generations Together: A Practical Toolkit for Designing Transformative Intergenerational Learning Communities 30 Σεπτεμβρίου 2026 - Challenged-based approach - Inclusion & Diversity - Civic engagement - Community of Practice - Lifelong learning - Open Labs - Toolbox - E-book - Students - Academics - Researchers - Civil society - Policy makers [ See more ](https://civis.eu/el/resources/bringing-generations-together-a-practical-toolkit-for-designing-transformative-intergenerational-learning-communities "Bringing Generations Together: A Practical Toolkit for Designing Transformative Intergenerational Learning Communities") - ### Fostering instead of Feeding: Realignment of Euro-African Cooperation 30 Σεπτεμβρίου 2026 A systemic framework for SME empowerment and demographic resilience in Euro-African relations Policy brief no. 16 | September 2026 By Manuel Jesgarz - Polycrisis - Policy recommendations - Researchers [ See more ](https://civis.eu/el/resources/fostering-instead-of-feeding-realignment-of-euro-african-cooperation "Fostering instead of Feeding: Realignment of Euro-African Cooperation") ![CIVIS – Europe’s Civic University Alliance](https://civis.eu/build/assets/civis-CCpvK1nT.svg) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Europe’s Civic University Alliance ![Co-funded by the European Union](https://civis.eu/build/assets/co-funded-by-the-european-union-DSKLW1us.png)Views and opinions expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
