本研究は、ザンビアのスポーツ振興NGO（SDP NGO）が気候変動（特に干ばつ）にどう適応しているかを調査。戦略的選択理論を用いて、組織の構造的制約と主体的行動を分析。適応行動は確認されたが、気候教育は環境・経済要因に制約されている。

This study examines how sport-for-development NGOs in Zambia adapt to climate change, particularly drought, using theories of strategic choice. It finds that while adaptation actions are taken, climate education remains constrained by environmental and economic determinants.

日本のGX文脈において
ザンビアの事例だが、日本のスポーツ振興や国際開発協力の文脈で参考になる可能性はある。ただし、GX政策や企業開示との直接的な接点は薄い。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes to the literature on climate adaptation in the development sector, offering a case from Zambia that may inform similar strategies globally. However, it does not directly address corporate disclosure or decarbonization.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The World Economic Forum Annual Report 2023–2024 warned of the devastating impact that climate change will have on human health by 2025, claiming that 14.5 million deaths by 2050 are likely to occur because of weather-induced catastrophes such as droughts, floods, extreme heat, heatwaves, wildfires, and tropical storms. Regions of the world, whether in the Global North or Global South, are experiencing different, if not multiple, forms of these climate-driven events. In the Global South, home to many sport-for-development non-governmental organisations (SDP NGOs), community actors are responding to the call for environmental stewardship. The El Nino-induced drought in Zambia has destabilised the operation of SDP NGOs as organisations and participants experience water shortages, erratic electricity supply, and limited engagement time with participants. This study purposed to advance environmental research among some of Zambia's SDP sector actors by demonstrating their engagement in national climate adaptation programmes. The study explored how the SDP sector is responding to environmental matters such as the prolonged drought in Southern Africa and its implications on the operations of the SDP sector. Drawing upon John Child and Richard Whittington's theories of strategic choice, the study analysed the structural constraints and agency of SDP NGOs regarding climate education and practical adaptations to external forces. This study utilised a survey questionnaire which was administered among SDP actors and semi-structured interviews with purposively selected SDP actors to highlight organisational responses to climate change impacts. Using a realist lens, this study examined how agency and structure interact through SDP actions. The study reveals that SDP actors have responded through climate adaptation actions in efforts to transform their context amid the harsh local realities of climate change. It further reveals that SDP NGOs’ climate education continue to be constrained by environment and economic determinants.
