NIU Journal of Climate Justice and Governance (ISSN: 3007-1836), is a quarterly interdisciplinary journal published by Nexus International University, Uganda. The Journal aims at providing an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of evidence of climate change, its causes, its natural resource impacts and its human impacts. The journal will also explore technological, policy, economy, strategic and social responses to climate change. It will be peer-reviewed, supported by rigorous processes of criterion-referenced article ranking and qualitative commentary, ensuring that only standard accepted quality work of the greatest substance and highest significance is published.
