🎥 🌊 NDF has just released a short film highlighting the West Africa Coastal Areas Management Program (WACA)! 🏠 West Africa’s coastline is home to over 20 million people and drives more than half of the region’s GDP, but it is threatened by rising sea levels, coastal erosion and extreme weather. In Benin, WACA is working with the local communities in the Avloh district to stabilise and reshape the riverbank to build a more resilient future. 🤝 Together with The World Bank and the Global Environment Facility, we are working to protect the environment and the 25,000 people in Avloh from worsening floods. 🛠️ 👉 Watch the short film and comment below your thoughts! 🌍 https://www.ndf.int/…/protecting-west-african-coastlines-fr…
