Nature and Peace in Northern Uganda: using satellite data to assess environmental change in conflict and post-conflict areas

Runnström, Micael LU and Nardi, Maria Andrea LU orcid (2021)
Abstract
In this post we share a methodological reflection about the possibility to evaluate possible drivers of environmental conflict by using remote sensing. If we define nature as green resources, for instance, it is possible to assess how vulnerable peace might be, against environmental changes occurring on the ground by using satellite data. Satellite data can then be used, in combination with fieldwork and interviews, to monitor and map changes in green environments in a post-conflict period.
