520 3    |a This is a report of a pilot study conducted by the World Bank concerning the natural risk hazards present in a 550 square km metropolitan area of Dakar, Senegal. The densely populated region is vulnerable to several natural hazards, yet it is not subject to the supervision of local government. Therefore, a project has been launched to analyze the area’s hazards and assess its institutional capabilities in order to develop a methodology for risk assessment at Dakar’s regional scale. This project also applies the World Bank’s Climate Change City Primer directives for its assessment of the existing infrastructure’s capabilities. GIS analysis is a prominent component of the study, employing population data, land prices, and land-cover data to produce maps depicting the region’s vulnerability to three major natural hazards—flooding, coastal erosion, and sea-level rise. The report includes spatial data from 1988 and 2008 to demonstrate the development of natural hazards as a result of population growth and land changes due to persistent soil erosion. The study’s recommendations include an awareness campaign that emphasizes the importance of land-use planning and community involvement in disaster response. The researchers recommend that the campaign begin with the dissemination of this study’s findings. The report concludes with a general action plan for the improvement of disaster management procedures. Detailed recommendations are not presented at this preliminary study, noting that more detailed analysis is required. However, the lack of an agency tasked with disaster management and the lack of hazard-related databases are identified as top priorities for this urban region that must build a disaster management infrastructure from the ground up.
