and National Adaptation strategies rarely and only implicitly address conflict and potential changes to power relations . Practitioners and policy researchers have attempted to address this gap by developing guidance and delivering training ; Bob and Bronkhorst ). However, there are real challenges relating to discounting indirect impacts on conflict and maladaptation  and risks of unintended outcomes . Crawford and Church  highlight the synergies between adaptation planning under the UNFCCC's National Adaptation Plan process and conflict reduction. Discussing development more broadly, Abrahams  suggests three barriers to development that incorporate conflict-climate risks: geographically disconnected impacts and outcomes, the discourse of climate as a threat multiplier  and teleconnected risks occurring at different scales. Effective approaches rely on understanding local power dynamics and social relations  .
