"""Oceanic Oases Under Threat,"" is a comprehensive analysis of the impact of climate change on various regions, focusing mainly on the Mediterranean, Gulf, and Indian Ocean areas. It is organised into several key sections, each addressing different aspects of this broad topic. Each section delves into specific aspects of climate change, ranging from its fundamental background, the particular vulnerabilities of different regions, to the socio-economic impacts and policy responses. The report also provides an in-depth theoretical framework, looking at power structures and environmental justice, and it explores the interplay between climate change and social dynamics, such as conflict, migration, and community resilience. Moreover, it includes a variety of case studies, quantitative and qualitative data analyses and concludes with a call to action for policymakers and the general public​.
