Côte d’Ivoire, situated in West Africa along the Gulf of Guinea, is bordered by Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Burkina Faso, and Ghana. The country is vulnerable to recurrent floods that are exacerbated by poor sanitation systems in urban areas. Droughts are expected to increasingly impact the semi-arid northern savannah region of the country in the coming century. Côte d’Ivoire’s vulnerability is exacerbated by its heavy dependence on agriculture and related activities that engage roughly two-thirds of its total population.
