Abstract

Niger faces significant climate challenges, including recurrent droughts and floods, which threaten rural livelihoods and economic development. Qualitative analysis of existing literature and interviews with local stakeholders to assess project outcomes and community impacts. While climate resilience initiatives show promise, further research is needed on their long-term sustainability and scalability. Investment strategies should prioritise community participation and integrated planning for optimal impact.
