Focus Area
Coastal Resilience
Protecting vulnerable coastlines through nature-based solutions.
Our approach
Defending a coastline on the front line of climate change.
The Gambia is ranked among the ten countries most at risk from coastal erosion and sea-level rise globally. Banjul itself faces the risk of submersion. We work with coastal communities to build nature-based defences.
