  • Final Narrative Report
    01/01/2019-31/12/2019 Agro-pastoral mediation in the Sahel region NARRATIVE REPORT 1 January to 31 December 2019 Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue 114 rue de Lausanne CH 1202 Geneva Tél : +41 22 908 11 30 www.hdcentre.org June 2020 Page 1 out of 8 01/01/2019-31/12/2019 1. Evaluation of the implementation of the activities of the action and of the results In the Sahel, agropastoral activities are highly dependent on climate variability. As a result, agropastoralists are constantly looking for strategies to enable them to effectively adapt their production systems to climate change. In recent years, politico-military crises and the occupation of certain areas by violent extremist groups have greatly disrupted traditional animal movements and caused a crisis of confidence between pastoral and agro-pastoral communities sharing the same geographical spaces and resources and have resulted in an increase in violence By the end of 2019, the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue (HD) was supporting a network of 961 community mediators spread across 58 border communities in Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania and Niger in their efforts to resolve conflicts over access to natural resources. This network of mediators resolved 105 micro-conflicts and facilitated the return of 229 head of cattle, two plots of land and two motorcycles to their owners. This work reflects the project's objective to prevent the transformation of micro-conflicts into inter-community conflicts that could be triggered by armed groups operating in the Sahel region. Denmark and the European Union also fund the agro-pastoral mediation programme implemented by HD with the support of the Netherlands.

  • In Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation Overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua Regions | March 2020
    Humanitarian situation monitoring (HSM) in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua regions | March 2020 Context Since the outbreak of violence in Mali in 2012, the border area between Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso has been characterized by a climate of insecurity due to the presence of armed groups, crime and rising tensions between communities1. The security situation in Niger has deteriorated sharply since 2018 and has caused the internal displacement of 159,028 people in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions as of March 20202. In addition, the provision of humanitarian assistance is subject to multiple constraints resulting in limitations to access affected populations due to security, geographic and climatic factors, as well as to measures taken as part of the state of emergency covering parts of the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions1. Limited humanitarian access is one of the factors at the origin of important information gaps about the scope, nature and severity of needs. To fill these information gaps, REACH has been implementing a monitoring of the humanitarian situation, financed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) since January 2020, following a pilot phase in November 20193. This situation overview presents the main results for data collected in March 2020 in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions and analyzes the development of main indicators in the Tillabéri region between November 2019 and March 20204. Methodology This assessment adopts a so-called “Area of knowledge” methodology. The aim of this methodology is to collect, analyze and share up-to-date information regarding multi-sectoral humanitarian needs in the region, including in areas that are difficult to access.

  • 1 NIGER WEEKLY SITUATION REPORT Reporting Date: From
    NIGER WEEKLY SITUATION REPORT Reporting date: From 20thJuly to 26th August 2012 I. Overview At least 44 people have been killed and thousands more made homeless after heavy floods caused the Niger River to overflow earlier this week, flooding parts of the capital Niamey and other areas. Up to 340,000 people have been affected by the floods, Niger's government has said. It has declared a state of emergency and called for urgent international aid for 2,000 displaced people. The first foreign aid plane chartered by Ireland and bringing tents, mosquito nets and ther relief items to victims of Niger's flood in Dosso area, arrived Sunday in Niamey. UNHCR has agreed to contribute to the inter-agency humanitarian response and has in that respect released 900 of the 2000 Plastic sheeting it plans to make available. UNHCR participated in a UN agencies joint evaluation mission in the Tillabery area aimed at identifying special assistance needs for the disaster stricken population following the recent floodings In total, 172 new households of 961 individuals have been registered in the three camps during the studied week. Arrivals are now slow but steady. II - Major Developments The general situation remains calm in the country. During the week under report, the frequent rains have caused floods throughout Niger. As a consequence access to the camps are made even more difficult. In terms of damage caused to physical infrastructure the camps have been relatively spared except for Tabareybayrey. The heavy wind and the rains from the 18th and 19th have destroyed several of the MSF tents building which serves as medical center,with serious damages to medical equipments and medical supply.

  • 12 Flood Risk Preliminary Mapping in Niamey, Niger33
    Maurizio Tiepolo31 and Sarah Braccio32 12 Flood Risk Preliminary Mapping in Niamey, Niger33 Abstract: Flood mapping is still rare in the large cities South of Sahara. The lack of information on the characteristics of floods, the orography of the sites and the recep- tors hampers its production. However, even with scant information, it is possible to create preliminary risk mapping. This tool can be used by local administrations in decision making on emergency plans or on climate change (CC) action plans. From 2010 onwards, the River Niger at Niamey (1.1 million inhabitants, 123 km2 in 2014) swelled at unseasonal times. This new river flood pattern can be linked to CC. Each flooding event affected thousands of people and homes. The steady development of areas that did not appear to be flood prone in the past is the main cause of these impacts. These areas require special measures if further impact is to be avoided in the future. This chapter presents the preliminary flood risk map of Niamey 1:20,000. The map was built up using an historic approach (flooded area derived from satellite images) and considering risk (R) as the result of hazard (H) and damage (D), R = H * D. Risk was measured according to two scenarios: medium and high probability of flooding. The inverse of the return period of river and pluvial flooding (H) and the potential damage to buildings and crops according the water depth were used. Infor- mation to measure risk components was sourced by daily rainfall and daily discharge of the River Niger from 1946 to 2014, and from high-resolution satellite images (2014).
