Al-Fashir

Sudan

Al-Fashir is projected to face multiple climate hazards that threaten its environmental stability and public health. The city will experience extreme heat and more frequent heatwaves, leading to dangerous heat extremes. Additionally, it is likely to have heavy precipitation events that could result in flooding risks. Prolonged drought conditions are anticipated, impacting water availability and agriculture. Furthermore, the elevated risk of arbovirus transmission and increasing malaria prevalence will pose serious public health challenges. These climate risks highlight the urgent need for awareness and preparedness in the face of these vulnerabilities, as Al-Fashir navigates a future fraught with climate-related challenges.
