Climate-Driven Research
Next-Gen West African Experts
About Us
West Africa is very vulnerable to climate change and the reasons proffered include over-dependence on rain fed agriculture, weak governance, inadequate economic and technological development as well as more technical reasons such as the fact that the Global Circulation Models (GCMs) used in simulating the regional patterns of climate are too coarse to reliably project the impacts of climate change in West African.
