Description:
The Sahel faces mounting human security and development challenges due to the complex interplay of diverse and growing risks in the region, including climate change, environmental degradation, food and livelihoods insecurity, weak governance capacity, conflict and violence, and displacement. To reach the crisis prevention and resilience goals set out in the UN Integrated Strategy for the Sahel (UNISS) and break away from chronic patterns of crisis, we must galvanize existing potential in the region. Decision-making must be better equipped with forward-looking analysis based on integrated data and evidence that incorporates the region’s major, cross-cutting issues and trends. Crisis prevention and resilience building is a shared responsibility that demands a wide range of expertise and collaboration across academic, policy and operational actors relevant to humanitarian action, development and peacebuilding. This includes the sharing of data and a range of methodological approaches that provide insight into the complexity of the Sahel as a foundational first step. For this reason, the inter-agency, inter-pillar Sahel Predictive Analytics project was established, from which this report has been produced.
