Abstract

Plan Senegal Emergent (PSE) is the framework of reference for the country’s economic and social policy. Addressing the challenge of aligning local development plans with PSE, and integrating climate resilience has become a priority issue for the government of Senegal. Innovation, Environnement, Developpement en Afrique (IED Afrique) will work with PSE on key issues including the consideration of climate scenarios in national policies, and the development of participatory methodologies for more effective engagement with communities in the implementation of PSE.
