Coastal communities in The Gambia are increasingly threatened by rising sea levels and coastal erosion, issues closely linked to global climate change. Since 1900, global sea levels have risen by approximately 20 cm. Rising temperatures have caused seawater to expand and ice sheets to melt, accelerating this rate in recent years (IPCC, 2021). For The […]
The Gambia’s agricultural sector is at a critical point in the face of pressing climate challenges. Agriculture employs over 70% of the population and contributes around 25% to the GDP (World Bank).
