Malawi Climate Stress Test – Cascading Socioeconomic Impacts and Adaptation Policies Pathways
This report focused on Malawi, Climate Stress Test: Cascading Socioeconomic Impacts and Adaptation Policy Pathways, developed by the Global Center on Adaptation with KnowlEdge, Zutari, and the International Institute for Sustainable Development, uses an integrated system dynamics modelling approach (Green Economic Model – GEM) to assess how climate-informed investment choices shape economic, social, and environmental outcomes over time. The analysis, done in 2025 for Malawi, Tanzania and Mozambique, links climate risks to infrastructure and productive capital, and translates adaptation decisions into macroeconomic impacts, including GDP growth, employment, and fiscal performance under multiple scenarios.
