Climate change is an escalating global crisis characterised by rising temperatures, shifting weather patterns, and increasing frequency of extreme weather events. These changes have far-reaching impacts on natural ecosystems and human societies, with significant consequences for communities worldwide. This pilot study aimed to establish a Climate Change Jurisdictional Vulnerability Index (CC-JVI) to assess community-level vulnerabilities in the face of climate change in South Africa. The research revealed significant disparities in the availability and quality of data across targeted communities, which affected accurate vulnerability assessments.
