Abstract

The Sahel region of Africa is facing significant challenges due to climate change, impacting human security in various ways. No empirical results are provided; instead, a thematic analysis of existing literature is employed. Addressing these vulnerabilities requires integrated policies that combine agricultural adaptation strategies with community-based initiatives aimed at enhancing resilience. Specific recommendations include implementing early warning systems for extreme weather events, promoting sustainable farming practices, and fostering inter-community support networks to mitigate climate impacts.
