City Infographic | Garoua – SEACAP Adaptation Pillar

The ‘sparkling city’ has identified concrete actions in several areas (agriculture, livestock and fisheries; environment, diversity and forests; and water and health) to be better prepared for the effects of climate change now and minimize future damage to its citizens and the economy. As flooding is among the climate hazards with the greatest impact on the city, by 2030 Garoua plans to make 70% of informal housing flood resistant. It also plans to restore 75% of its biodiversity by developing 53 ha of green spaces.

This infographic was created for the signatory city as part of the GIZ support to CoM SSA.
