“Abidjan: Floods, Displacements, and Corrupt Institutions”
“Abidjan: Floods, Displacements, and Corrupt Institutions” Abstract Abidjan is the political capital of Ivory Coast. This five million people city is one of the economic motors of Western Africa, in a country whose democratic strength makes it an example to follow in sub-Saharan Africa. However, when disasters such as floods strike, their most vulnerable areas are observed and consequences such as displacements, economic desperation, and even public health issues occur. In this research, I looked at the problem of flooding in Abidjan by focusing on their institutional response. I analyzed its institutional resilience at three different levels: local, national, and international. A total of 20 questionnaires were completed by 20 different participants. Due to the places where the respondents lived or worked when the floods occurred, I focused on two out of the 10 communes of Abidjan after looking at the city as a whole: Macory (Southern Abidjan) and Cocody (Northern Abidjan). The goal was to talk to the Abidjan population to gather their thoughts from personal experiences and to look at the data published by these institutions. To analyze the information, I used methodology combining a qualitative analysis from the questionnaires and from secondary sources with a quantitative approach used to build a word-map with the platform Voyant, and a series of Arc GIS maps. The findings showed that the international organizations responded the most effectively to help citizens and that there is a general discontent with the current local administration. The conclusions also pointed out that government corruption and lack of infrastructural preparedness are two major problems affecting the overall resilience of Abidjan and Ivory Coast to face this shock. -

An estimated 800 people continue to live in the camp because of continued insecurity in their home areas. © UNICEF/NYHQ2011-0596/Olivier Asselin Highlights • Ongoing distributions of emergency supplies in various site in Abidjan (including Yopougon and Abobo) worth about US$ 350,000 • The security situation remains volatile in the southeast of Cote d’Ivoire (Bas- Sassandra) and the area remains out of reach for UN aid agencies. UNICEF/WHO have delayed a polio vaccination campaign in the region, but UNICEF plans a rapid assessment mission as soon as security permits. • Regional Director and Director of EMOPS completed a field mission in Côte d’Ivoire. The Director of EMOPS visited the West and met with Man Sub-Office staff and partners. Situation Overview • Rebels continued fighting in outskirts of the commercial capital Abidjan, but reportedly lost grounds this reporting period when the Republican Forces informed media they finally had total control of the whole city. Around 70 dead bodies were found in Youpougon by Ivorian Red Cross 4 and 5 May. • Reconciliation work on going in Cote d’Ivoire. Visit this week of the so called ’Group of Elders’: Mary Robinson, Kofi Annan and Desmond Tutu, who also paid visit to the former president Laurent Gbagbo where he is held in the city of Korhogo, North of Cote d’Ivoire. -

This work assesses the spatio-temporal 15 variability of the Ébrié lagoon water quality at the city of Abidjan. The methodological approach 16 used in this study is summarized in three stages: the choice and standardization of the parameters 17 for assessing water quality for uses such as aquaculture, irrigation, watering, and sports and 18 recreation; the weighting of these parameters using the Hierarchical Analysis Process (AHP) of 19 Saaty; and finally, the aggregation of the weighted parameters or factors. Physicochemical and 20 microbiological analysis data on the waters of the Ébrié lagoon for June and December of 2014 and 21 2015 were provided by the Ivorian Center for Anti-Pollution (Centre Ivoirien Anti-Pollution, 22 CIAPOL) and the concentrations of trace elements in sediments (As, Cd, Cr, Pb, Zn) were used. -

Abstract: The study focuses on the analysis of the physicochemical parameters of the bay of Yopougon. A first series of data was measured in situ at a fixed station in the bay where a sensor was installed. Another comes from an analysis of the water sample. This work was carried out as part of the monitoring of RNO water (national observation network). Its objective is to evaluate the characteristics of the physico-chemical chemical parameters (pH, temperature, conductivity, TDS, dissolved oxygen, ORP, TSS) of the Yopougon bay and of the nutrient salts (ammonium, nitrite and phosphate). The study was conducted on the surface and in the bay's water column. The curves obtained show a variation in the physico-chemical parameters from the surface to the depth of the bay. The concentrations of the parameters are above normal. -
