 Niger is a semi-arid to arid country, and faces significant land degradation stemming from baseline pressures. Climate change threatens to exacerbate these issues, in the process worsening food insecurity and making poverty reduction increasingly challenging. Impacts of climate change are expected to include:
- Higher temperatures/increasing aridity
- More erratic rainfall, leading to greater risk of drought and flood
- Increased erosion risks
- Declining resilience of forest resources
- Reduced crop and livestock productivity
CBA projects will work with communities in Niger's Sahel to build resilience to climate change within agro-pastoral ecosystems, supporting rural livelihoods, and particularly focusing on the needs of women. Activities will be guided by the Niger CBA Country Programme Strategy (English Abstract).
