ARTELIA has been mandated by the AfDB to study an integrated coastal zone management plan which aims at protecting the 15 km shoreline located between Baguida (Western extremity of the study area) and Kossi Agbavi (Eastern one) from strong shoreline recession due to improper coastal and infrastructure management, and which is expected to be even increased due to climate change and consecutive sea level rise.
This paper presents the integrated methodology implemented to achieve such a goal, including economic, financial and socio-environmental risk assessments, all depending on the findings of the hydro-sedimentary central study.
