Fighting Coastal Erosion in Senegal

Sinopse

Our Senegal-based Momentum for Change award winning activity is protecting Senegal’s coastal areas against erosion caused by rising and storm surges. This reduces the impacts of climate change on the coast by protecting houses and infrastructure threatened by erosion and the intrusion of saltwater. The activity includes anti-salt dikes to reduce salination of agricultural lands and defenses against the sea to prevent coastal erosion.To learn more, we’re joined by Dethie Soumare Ndiaye, who coordinates the office at the ecological monitoring centre in Senegal.
