Cereal production systems in semi-arid environments in Senegal are extensive and highly depend on weather and climate-related effects. Assessing climate change impacts on the main staple food crops is essential to ensure food security. This study aims to assess climate change impacts on millet and sorghum in Niakhar and Toubacouta, two locations in...
This report presnets the results of the pilot phase (2021) of the GAP-Track (Global Adaptation progress Tracker). See https://www.iddri.org/en/project/assessing-global-progress-climate-adaptation-gap-track-2021.
Climate services have been criticised in the past for their tendency to only disseminate results from climate research, rather than to seek to understand and tailor to the needs of their target audiences. Two surveys have been conducted within two projects, ISIpedia and CLIMAP, to assess users’ needs for climate and climate impacts information of a...
Detailed description of my team's approach to jointly conducting vulnerability studies in a West-African context, intrinsically involving the national scientific community, national government NAP partners, civil society and the private sector.
Pour contribuer au renforcement des capacités des acteurs intervenant dans le secteur des changements climatiques, le présent guide, basé sur l’expérience faite sous la composante 2 du Projet d’Appui Scientifique aux processus de Plans Nationaux d’Adaptation (PAS-PNA) dans trois pays de l’Afrique Francophone – Benin, Burkina-Faso et Sénégal, a été...
Cette publication a été développée dans le cadre de la Composante 2, Activité II.3 du Projet d’Appui Scientifique aux processus de Plans Nationaux d’Adaptation dans les pays francophones les moins avancés d’Afrique subsaharienne (PAS-PNA).
Cette étude releve de l’Initiative Internationale pour le Climat (IKI) soutenue par le Ministère fédéral de l’...
Differentiating the impacts of climate change between 1.5°C and 2°C requires a regional and sector-specific perspective. Whereas for some regions and sectors the difference in climate variables might be indistinguishable from natural variability, other areas especially in the tropics and subtropics will experience significant shifts. In addition to...
Dans le cadre de la collaboration entre l’Etat du Sénégal et la République fédérale d’Allemagne à travers le Projet d’Appui Scientifique aux processus de Plans Nationaux d’Adaptation (PAS-PNA), une étude « Évaluation des références aux changements climatiques et de leur base scientifique dans les politiques et stratégies au Sénégal » a été conduite...
Savoirs croisés L a crise du fordisme et l'essor de la société du savoir appellent un changement des relations entre la science et la société. Afin de penser de nouvelles politiques sociales et économiques et de favoriser l'innova-tion, il faut briser les vieux schémas de production des connaissances et construire de nouveaux liens entre le product...
Canada’s Atlantic coast has been increasingly affected by inundations and coastal erosion over time. Results presented here stem from participative research action (PRA) projects undertaken in several coastal communities in New-Brunswick and Quebec, using methods such as semi-directed interviews, focus groups, participant observation, public meetin...
Purpose
In recent years, the manifestation of the effects of climate change in coastal zones has prompted governments to mobilize and propose adaptation measures to reduce the vulnerability of their populations. For the governments responsible for the implementation of climate policies, adaptation still represents a novel field of action. The purpo...
The vulnerability of coastal zones to the impacts of climate change and risks is the result of the synergy of natural and human impacts on the natural environment, which together create a vulnerable socio-ecological system. In order to account for that duality, theoretical approaches such as the exposition/sensitivity or risk/hazard couples have be...
Cet article porte sur le role du capital social dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre de strategies d’adaptation au changement climatique dans le secteur du bâti (habitation humaine) en zone cotiere. Nos travaux portent sur deux etudes de cas situees au Nord (Pigeon Hill et Cap-Bateau) et au Sud (Cocagne et Grande Digue) du Nouveau-Brunswick (Canada)....
