Entry Description

Faced with the many problems of Senegal's vulnerable coasts (erosion, floods, pollution...), we propose a protection approach that integrates coastal development. The approach is based on the observation of resilient areas and listening to the populations. The project site extends from Rufisque to Bargny and aims to build social, economic and ecological resilience. Strategies such as reefs, dunes and resilient parks aim to reduce wave action, prevent erosion, rebuild the coastline and promote the blue economy. In the short term, life whit sea ceases to be a fight and becomes a symbiosis!
