Involving complex interactions among many factors, vulnerability in drylands is rising, jeopardizing the livelihood for of millions. D’ici 2030, le nombre d’habitants des zones arides de l’Afrique de l’Est et de l’Ouest devrait augmenter de 65 à 80 % (selon les scénarios de fécondité). Au cours de la même période, le changement climatique pourrait provoquer une expansion des zones classées « arides » allant, dans certains scénarios, jusqu’à 20 % pour l’ensemble de la région, et encore plus dans certains pays (carte 0.2.). Cela placerait davantage de personnes dans des conditions encore plus difficiles. 2016-01-06T23:07:57Z 2016-01-06T23:07:57Z 2016-05-02 Book Livre Libro 978-1-4648-0817-3 https://hdl.handle.net/10986/23576 en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank application/pdf application/pdf Washington, DC: World Bank; and Agence Française de Développement
