Kebkabiya

Sudan

Kebkabiya is projected to face several climate hazards that pose significant risks to its population and infrastructure. The city will experience extreme heat, including dangerous heat extremes and frequent heatwaves, which can increase the incidence of heat-related health issues. Furthermore, the risk of arbovirus transmission and malaria is expected to rise significantly due to these heat conditions. Additionally, frequent heavy precipitation is anticipated, leading to potential flooding and community disruptions. These climate challenges will compound the vulnerabilities of Kebkabiya, highlighting the urgent need for resilience planning as the impacts of climate change become more pronounced.
