Senegal

Senegal is a West African country with a population of approximately 17 million people. It experiences a tropical climate with distinct wet and dry seasons, which affects its agricultural sector significantly. Climate change has brought challenges to Senegal, including rising sea levels and desertification along its coast.These climate-related issues have increased the country's vulnerability to natural disasters, such as floods, droughts, and irregular rainfall patterns, impacting soil quality and food security. In response, there has been an increase in both internal and external migration.Internally, rural-urban migration is prevalent as people seek better economic opportunities and access to education in urban areas due to limited prospects in agriculture. Externally, some Senegalese migrate in search of economic and environmental improvements. Climate change and economic factors have prompted various forms of mobility as individuals and communities adapt to evolving challenges.
