Transboundary Climate Risks in Senegal
Summary
This report by the Stockholm Environment Institute argues that Senegal must address the cross-border dimensions of climate change impacts to achieve resilience.
Key insights
- The report recommends that Senegal formally incorporate transboundary climate risks into its national adaptation planning, specifically within its updated nationally determined contribution (NDC), national adaptation plan (NAP), and other adaptation-related assessments.
- To coordinate cross-government responses, the authors suggest that Senegal designate clear risk ownership of transboundary climate risks to a central actor.
- The authors propose three international cooperation pathways for Senegal: mobilizing financial support for science and research on transboundary adaptation (including risk channels like global supply chains), building capacity and awareness within West Africa's foreign policy community and with development partners, and establishing partnerships for new international cooperation and adaptation governance initiatives.
