ナイジェリア・コギ州の気候変動影響と政府対応を1999～2023年にわたり分析。洪水や高温による避難・生計喪失に対し、州政府の対策は事後的で短期的なものが多く、長期的脆弱性の低減には不十分だった。気候変動主流化や強制移住計画の拡充などを提言。

日本のGX文脈において
ナイジェリアの州レベルの事例であり、日本のGX政策（SSBJ、有報等）との直接的な接点は少ない。ただし、気候ガバナンスの脆弱性が適応策の効果を制限する点は、日本の自治体の気候変動適応計画にも示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
This paper provides a case study of climate governance challenges in a developing country context, highlighting the gap between reactive disaster response and proactive adaptation. While not directly tied to global disclosure frameworks like TCFD or ISSB, it underscores the importance of institutional capacity for effective climate action.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Illustrates how governance weaknesses undermine climate adaptation in a flood-prone Nigerian state.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Climate change has become a major governance challenge in Nigeria, with Kogi State experiencing recurrent flooding and rising temperatures due to its location at the confluence of Rivers Niger and Benue. This study examines climate change and governance in Kogi State between 1999 and 2023, with the objective of assessing the nature of climate change impacts and evaluating the effectiveness of government responses across different administrations. The study is anchored on governance theory, which explains how institutional capacity, coordination and policy choices shape environmental outcomes. A qualitative research design was adopted, relying on secondary data from government reports, academic journals, news articles and publications of national and international organisations. The findings reveal that flooding and extreme heat have caused widespread displacement, loss of livelihoods and damage to infrastructure, particularly in Lokoja and riverine communities. Although successive state governments implemented measures such as emergency relief, resettlement projects, flood barriers and institutional collaborations, most responses were reactive and short-term, with limited impact on reducing long-term vulnerability. The study concludes that climate change impacts in Kogi State are closely linked to governance weaknesses, including poor planning, weak enforcement and inadequate adaptation policies. It therefore recommends mainstreaming climate change into state development planning, expanding permanent resettlement programmes, strengthening flood and heat mitigation infrastructure, improving local government capacity and sustaining partnerships with relevant stakeholders to enhance climate resilience and sustainable development in Kogi State.
