Key Takeaways

Flooding Impacts All Regions

The threat of increased flooding requires a multi-billion dollar investment throughout the region.

Investment Decisions are Required

Multiple climate threats require policy makers to determine where appropriate adaptations should be made.

Regional Differences Are Important

Climate impacts are not equal across Sub-Saharan Africa. Each region requires separate analysis as appropriate.

About the Project

Impacts of environmental shifts on African countries

Developing economies in Africa are hindered by climate challenges, as increasing damage forces limited funds to be diverted from new construction to repairs. The multi-sector analysis was conducted to identify mitigation policies that could minimize climate-related damage and reduce the funds needed to address its impacts.

Resilient Analytics was a consultant to the larger effort focusing on the physical impacts of climate change, including both determining the potential increase in infrastructure degradation, as well as the cost impact of replacing infrastructure on a more frequent basis. The team worked collaboratively with the project economists and United Nations researchers to integrate the findings into the overall results.

Resilient Analytics introduced a focus on assessing infrastructure through climate shocks that were used as input to integrated assessment models by the economists on the team. Through collaboration, Resilient Analytics refined existing models to determine the potential damage and degradation rates that could occur to transportation networks throughout the countries of interest.
