Abstract

Excessive snowfall and rainfall are prominently observed in Iran. Being situated in a geographically vulnerable location, this country is not exempt from the security ramifications of climate change. This research endeavor aims to address two primary inquiries: 1) What are the security implications of climate change in Iran, and which factors exert the greatest influence? 2) Among the pillars of good governance, which one holds the greatest potential to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change in Iran? The study targeted a population comprising of knowledgeable elites and experts, from whom a sample of 100 individuals was selected using a snowball sampling technique. Data collection was conducted through the utilization of a researcher-designed questionnaire, and subsequent analysis was performed employing SPSS and MINITAB software. The study findings, supported by a P-value of 0.000 (below the predetermined alpha level of 0.05), showcase a distinction between the natural and human consequences of climate change in Iran. The results of the Tukey test indicate that the natural consequences of climate change, with an average score of 4.0584, belong to group A, while the human consequences, with an average score of 3.4460, fall under group B. Furthermore, the outcomes of the Friedman test, assessing the impact of good governance on the mitigation of security consequences associated with climate change in Iran, highlight accountability as the most influential factor, with an average score of 5.79. The rule of law follows closely, with an average score of 5.62, while officials' accountability ranks third, receiving an average rating of 5.32.
