Live Peace Tech endeavors to address some of the most urgent and interconnected challenges of our time, namely conflict, climate change and biodiversity loss, unemployment, and poverty. These issues, though distinct, are intricately linked, requiring a comprehensive and holistic approach for effective resolution. Viewing them in isolation hinders our ability to tackle the root causes and interconnected nature of these challenges.

• Conflict: Climate change emerges as a contributing factor to the escalation of conflicts. Shifts in temperature, precipitation patterns, and the frequency of extreme weather events impact resource availability, leading to competition and disputes. Recent data from organizations like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) provides insights into the relationship between climate change and conflict.

• Unemployment: Live Peace Tech acknowledges the impact of climate change on industries such as agriculture, fisheries, and tourism, resulting in potential job losses. Extreme weather events and ecosystem collapse plays a role in this dynamic. Reports from labor organizations, environmental agencies, or bodies like the International Labour Organization (ILO) offers updated information on the intersection of climate change and unemployment.

• Poverty: The World Bank and other international organizations have explored the nexus between climate change and poverty. Climate-related events, including crop failures and displacement, disproportionately affect vulnerable communities, exacerbating poverty. The Global Monitoring Report by the World Bank and the World Meteorological Organization can provide valuable insights into the latest data on climate change and its impact on poverty.

We aim to confront these pressing issues by adopting an interdisciplinary and interconnected approach, recognizing the complex web of challenges that demand a holistic educational response.
