Guide d'intégration du genre dans le processus de Plan National d'Adaptation du Sénégal
Summary
This introductory section of a guide on gender integration in Senegal's National Adaptation Plan outlines the impacts of climate change in West Africa and specifically within Senegal, detailing temperature increases, precipitation declines, and the resulting degradation of ecosystems and socio-economic sectors.
Key insights
- Climate change impacts in West Africa affect all societal layers and aspects of the natural and built environment, with projections indicating worsening threats to lives, livelihoods, the economy, and ecosystems.
- In Senegal, climate change is characterized by rising temperatures, sea-level rise, and extreme weather. Between 1951 and 2010, temperatures rose by 1.2°C and precipitation decreased by 300 mm.
- Climate variations in Senegal have caused biophysical degradation, including a 7.8% to 15.7% decrease in the flow of the Senegal and Gambia rivers by 2013, groundwater depletion, saltwater intrusion, and soil salinization. Socio-economic consequences include reduced agricultural productivity, diminished pasture resources, and migration.
