ALISE

ALISE: Senegal’s coastline under surveillance

In Bargny, the sea is advancing whilst economic activity is in decline, driving young people to set off for Europe in canoes, risking their lives. For here, the houses on the seafront are nothing more than ruins hanging over the waves. In Senegal, all coastal areas need tools to help them decide how to slow the rise in sea levels and adapt. The SCO ALISE team is working hard on this.

ATTEST

ATTEST: a story of Aude

“We used to be taught at school that we had to drain fields to send water to the sea as quickly as possible. Today, we want to do the opposite to protect our crops.” The increasing frequency of intense runoff and droughts – effects of climate change – means we need to rethink our land management and agricultural practices. ATTEST is here to support land managers and farmers on this journey.
