Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges of this century. This is more so for developing and least-developed countries, which have limited means of adaptation and a high proportion of vulnerable populations. We empirically study the interconnection between climate and multidimensional poverty. To do so, we rely on gridded climatic data matched with multidimensional poverty data, both aggregated at different spatial levels. We first provide evidence at the cross-country level (for over 70 countries worldwide) as well as the subnational level (for 343 subnational regions in Asia).
