Resumo(s)
This paper investigates the impact of climate change in the unique context of Guinea-Bissau.
Examining local perceptions, characteristics that determine the population’s understanding of
climate change are investigated. Results highlight that the poorest suffering food, income, and water
insecurity realize the extent to which they are affected. Further analysis shows that changing
climatic conditions contribute to a perceived deterioration in agricultural conditions and
dissatisfaction with environmental efforts. This fosters a broader sense of mistrust in the president
and government. Consequently, climate change is perceived as a pressing concern in Guinea Bissau, calling for effective adaptation measures and heightened political attention.
