Extreme weather events can be associated with increased conflict risk . There is the potential for extreme weather events and disasters to cause political instability and increase the risk of violent conflict, although not conclusively . Post-disaster settings can be used to intensify state repression  and to alter insurgent groups' behaviour . Different stakeholders use disasters to establish new narratives and alter public opinion . Some research has demonstrated how post-disaster activities have had positive impacts on the social contract between people and the state, reducing the risk of conflict by strengthening relations between government and citizens and strengthening the citizenship of marginalised communities . However, post- disaster and disaster risk-related activities themselves have limited capacity to support diplomatic efforts to build peace .
