Malin Mobjörk
Malin Mobjörk is the Director of the Climate Change and Risk programme at Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, SIPRI, and a fellow of the research programme Mistra Geopolitics: Sustainable development in a changing geopolitical era.
Malin graduated from Linköping University, Sweden, in 1999 (in philosophy and political science) and earned her PhD in Water and Environmental Studies at the Department of Thematic Studies, Linköping University, in 2004. During the last decade, her work has focused on the intersection between climate change, security and development, and policy organisations’ responses to climate risks. Her work also encompasses shifting notions of security and geopolitics linked to global environmental change. Malin has an explicit interest in bridging science and policy, and she was a senior adviser in the Expert Working Group on Climate-related Security Risks initiated by Sweden during its membership of the UN Security Council (2017-2018). In spring 2018, she was a public policy fellow at Woodrow Wilson Center, Washington DC, USA.
