This paper was commissioned by the Swedish Commission on Climate Change and Development.

The paper proposes several recommendations for the Commission on Climate Change and Development to consider identifying and reducing vulnerability to various hazards faced, whether related and/or unrelated to climate change. They are aimed at policymakers and relevant organizations, particularly those concerned with development, climate change, and public safety.
