U.S. Climate Finance: Senegal

U. S. Department of State

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is providing $1.5 million through its Collaborative Management for a Sustainable Fisheries Future in Senegal (COMFISH) project to enhance the capacity of local artisanal fisheries councils to manage the effects of climate change on the fish catch along Senegal's coasts. COMFISH will work with local fisheries councils to ensure that the projected impacts of climate change, including changes in the upwelling patterns and increases in salinization, are understood at the community level and included in local management plans. These efforts will help make Senegal's fishing industry more sustainable, and significantly improve food security, livelihoods, and economic growth, as well as resilience to climate change.
