Strengthening joint capability development has become a central priority of EU defence policy in response to persistent capability gaps, fragmentation in procurement, and the deteriorating European security environment. Although Member States retain primary responsibility for defence planning and acquisitions, the European Union has progressively established instruments intended to encourage cooperative capability development and strengthen the European defence technological and industrial base. Defence expenditure in the EU has increased substantially in recent years, reaching an estimated €381 billion in 2025, yet it remains significantly lower than that of the United States. Fragmentation also persists in equipment and capability development. To address these challenges, the EU has developed a set of policy and financial instruments covering the entire capability cycle. Strategic priorities are defined through frameworks such as the Capability Development Plan and Coordinated Annual Review on Defence, while initiatives including Permanent Structured Cooperation, and the European Defence Fund promote collaborative research and capability development projects. Recent policy initiatives, notably the European defence industrial strategy and the Readiness 2030 agenda, seek to translate increased defence spending into coordinated investment, industrial capacity expansion and faster capability development.

The European Parliament emphasises that joint capability development is essential to reduce duplication and strengthen European defence readiness. It argues that higher defence spending will remain inefficient if it continues to be organised primarily at national level. Parliament therefore calls for stronger EU-level coordination, expanded joint procurement and increased use of instruments such as the European defence industry programme to achieve economies of scale, improve interoperability and reinforce the EU defence industry.

Climate-induced Loss and Damage (L&D) is becoming a defining challenge for global climate governance, especially in West Africa, where adaptation limits are increasingly surpassed. Yet, the literature has largely overlooked how national governments in Africa conceptualize, operationalize, and govern L&D. Existing studies tend to focus on international finance debates or localized impacts, leaving a gap in understanding the national policy frameworks shaping L&D responses. This paper addresses this gap through a comparative analysis of five West African countries, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, and Sierra Leone, structured around four thematic dimensions: conceptual clarity, scope and depth of losses, policy integration, and institutional readiness.
Drawing on more than 60 official policy documents, including National Adaptation Plans, disaster frameworks, and climate legislation, the study applies an interpretive scoring framework and proposes a three-stage typology of L&D policy engagement (Nascent, Emerging, Integrated). The results show that Senegal and Ghana fall into the Emerging category, with partial recognition of L&D concepts but limited institutionalization in formal policy architecture. Nigeria, Burkina Faso, and Sierra Leone remain Nascent, where L&D is either subsumed under adaptation and humanitarian action or only referenced anecdotally. No country has yet reached the Integrated stage. Across all five cases, economic losses in agriculture and infrastructure are frequently reported, while non-economic losses such as displacement, cultural erosion, and psychological harm remain weakly specified. Institutional arrangements for L&D are fragmented in national frameworks, suggesting uneven preparedness for engagement with emerging international L&D governance mechanisms, including the Santiago Network and the Fund for responding to Loss and Damage.
The findings suggest that the absence of formal L&D strategies in many national policy documents may limit the visibility of irreversible climate impacts and complicate future claims-making in international arenas. By advancing a systematic baseline of how L&D is framed in national policies and introducing a heuristic typology for cross-country comparison, this study contributes conceptually, empirically, and policy-relevantly to debates on climate justice and the evolving governance of L&D in the Global South.
Key policy insights:
- Non-economic losses remain under-recognized in national climate policies, limiting justice-oriented approaches to L&D governance.
- Stronger integration of L&D across adaptation, disaster risk reduction, and development planning is needed to improve policy coherence and institutional coordination.
- Establishing dedicated L&D focal points, clearer institutional mandates, and links to existing risk-financing instruments could strengthen national engagement with emerging global L&D mechanisms.
- Embedding L&D more explicitly within NDCs, NAPs, and related reporting frameworks could improve strategic positioning within the FRLD and Santiago Network processes.
