A new report explains the situation The Gambia faces with the climate crisis and what can be done.
The Gambia is ranked among the countries experiencing high exposure and vulnerability to the effects of the climate crisis, characterized by changing precipitation and temperature patterns that affect production and economic systems.
A recent baseline study report by World Agroforestry (ICRAF) established that the key economic sectors — agriculture and tourism — are among the most affected and vulnerable.
Addressing this looming danger requires an urgent coordinated effort by the Government and others to address the underlying vulnerabilities. The Large-scale Ecosystem-based Adaptation project was borne out of the urgency to take action nationwide.
