Project
The study falls under component 1 “Integrated urban planning and management taking into account climate risk and sustainability” of PROGEP 2. The winter of 2022 revealed that flooding is becoming increasingly severe in the Dakar peri-urban area. This amplification is the direct consequence of i) climate change, which is leading to an amplification of extremes in terms of both drought and flooding ii) galloping urbanization, which is reducing the extent of the Niayes. The study area is located in the Greater Dakar region, and is the preferred extension zone for the capital's urban sprawl. To ensure coherence between the site's constraints and the extensions of the urban area, the study develops a land-use planning and operational urbanism approach based on the superimposition of risk mapping with the projection of water drainage infrastructures, in order to then develop a detailed urbanism plan responding to a vision of sustainable development and adaptation to climate change.
