Climate and conflicts: Redress and prevention project is a two-year project supported by the Global Campus of Human Rights and Right Livelihood partnership project, implemented by two Campuses – Global Campus Caucasus (Yerevan State University) and Global Campus Central Asia (OSCE Academy, Bishkek). It addresses the human rights challenges posed by war, conflicts, bad governance, and environmental degradation in three key regions: Nagorno-Karabakh, Transnistria, and the Fergana Valley. The project aims to highlight the missing scientific data and research on climate challenges in these regions, particularly regarding climate change mitigation and governance, and to explore how international human rights mechanisms can act locally in de facto states and regions with poor governance.

The project aims to promote a human rights-based approach to climate change and conflict prevention in Transnistria, Nagorno-Karabakh, and the Fergana Valley through cross-regional cooperation and academic research, particularly in relation to the human rights of children and future generations.
