DEPREM2024 - AN INVESTIGATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CLIMATE CHANGE AS A TRIGGER OF NATURAL DISASTERS AND FOOD SECURITY: THE CASE OF SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA

Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to examine the nexus between climate change and food security, focusing on 18 sub-Saharan African countries profoundly impacted by climate change. Employing panel data analysis, we assessed data on climate change and food security variables spanning from 2000 to 2020 within the sampled countries. The stationarity of these variables was scrutinized using the Im, Peseran, Shin (IPS) and Levin, Lin, Chu (LLC) unit root tests. Subsequent to the unit root test results, we conducted the Pedroni and Kao Cointegration Test, revealing a long-term relationship between the variables. Employing the Dumitrescu-Hurlin Causality Test, we identified a unidirectional causality relationship from climate change to food security. In essence, favorable shifts in climate change positively impact food security, while adverse changes have a detrimental effect. These findings are anticipated to provide valuable insights for academics exploring diverse samples and policymakers seeking to enhance the food security of their constituents.

DOĞAL AFETLERİN TETİKLEYİCİSİ OLARAK İKLİM DEĞİŞİKLİĞİ İLE GIDA GÜVENLİĞİ ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİNİN İNCELENMESİ: SAHRA ALTI AFRİKA ÖRNEĞİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, iklim değişikliğinden derinden etkilenen 18 Sahra altı Afrika ülkesine odaklanarak iklim değişikliği ile gıda güvenliği arasındaki bağlantıyı incelemektir. Örneklemde bulunan ülkelere ait 2000-2020 yılları arasındaki iklim değişikliği ile gıda güvenliği değişkenlerine ilişkin veriler, panel veri analizi ile test edilmiştir. Değişkenlerin durağanlık sınaması Im, Peseran, Shin (IPS) ve Levin, Lin, Chu (LLC) birim kök testi ile analiz edilmiştir. Birim kök testinden elde edilen sonuçlara uygun olarak Pedroni ve Kao Eşbütünleşme Testi yapılmış olup, değişkenler arasında uzun dönemli ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır. Son olarak, Dumitrescu Hurlin Nedensellik Testi’nin uygulanması ile iklim değişikliğinden gıda güvenliğine doğru tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak iklim değişikliğine ilişkin olumlu gelişmeler, gıda güvenliğini olumlu, olumsuz gelişmeler ise olumsuz etkileyecektir. Çalışmanın bulgularının, hem farklı örneklemlerde çalışmalarını yürütebilecek akademisyenler hem de vatandaşlarının gıda güvenliğini güvence altına almak isteyen politika yapıcılar açısından fayda sağlayacağı değerlendirilmektedir.
