Justice in Climate Change Exposure

JUICCE (JUstice In Climate Change Exposure) is a research project started in 2019. It focuses on the analysis of climate inequities in continental Europe.

In JUICCE, climate inequities refer to how certain groups are more affected by climate change than others. These differences result from underlying social, economic, and political factors that shape people’s ability to respond and adapt to its impacts.

As part of this project, we are developing spatially explicit analyses of climate inequities, with a focus on extreme weather events.

Research outcomes produced as part of the project include:

Development of a method for high-resolution mapping of average disposable income per capita and its projection in different SSPs.
Analysis of the evolution of climate inequities related to income across the 21st century.
Comparison of indicators to describe the climatic and social impact of heatwaves.
Systematic review of the socio-economic factors responsible for the differences in the vulnerability to extreme weather events.

Open science commitment

JUICCE is fully commited to open science. All our research outcomes are available in open access : articles, datasets, code, you can find everything online!
