Africa has 10 fastest-growing cities, according to a new report, but terrorist attacks have increased by 250 percent. Westerners have been kidnapped across the Sahel, including in Niamey in the north-west of Niger. American who was kidnapped near Massalata, near the border with Nigeria, in October 2020 and rescued by the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Africa (UNSW).

Niamey is located in the Parc du W, a landlocked country bordering Niger, Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Nigeria and Chad. There is a risk of terrorist attacks because it is a three-country region that shares open borders with Ben in and Burkina Faso. With a population of more than 1.5 million, it is the second largest city in Niger and the third largest in Africa.

Most agree that the area was inhabited even before this time, but there is no direct evidence of human settlement in the area, except for a peak that rises to 1850 m and a partially cultivable savanna found south of the 15th parallel. In this area you can see the remains of ancient cities such as the ancient city of Niamey and there are several archaeological sites, some of which are over 1850 meters high.

Some claim that it was originally a Songhai fishing village named after the local Niami tree, while others claim that it was founded by a Djerma chief named Kouri from Mali. When Niger declared independence from France in 1960, horse racing began to follow the tradition of racing at the Hippodrome in central Niamey.

A major attraction of the city is the Niger Museum, which houses exhibits such as a dinosaur skeleton and the Tree of Tenere. The museum was called the "best West African national museum" because of its bright blue-and-white building.

CADEV - Niger has two diocesan offices in Niamey and Maradi, covering the whole country, with a national executive secretariat based in Niamesy as a coordination and action office for all partners. The support of the GFDRR and the World Bank for these efforts was provided through an initiative financed by the Belgian Government under the auspices of the European Union and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

At the same time, PGRC - DU finances the construction of flood-resistant infrastructure in areas considered to be at risk of flooding. The hope is that this will pave the way for the Niger government to better prioritise investment and capital in flood preparedness. Taking into account the vulnerability of the population to flooding and its impact on the country's economic and social development, the World Bank supports the development of structures at central and local levels to reduce their vulnerability to flood risks.

Although Niger still has a long way to go, its recent experience suggests that it can help to build the capacity of other low-capacity countries facing similar challenges and threats. How can we build capacity to respond to the many threats facing low- and high-capacity countries in Africa?

Survival with dignity, a moving portrait of the Hausa community in Niger and the diaspora. Youngstedt uses her data on the lives of migrants and their communities in Nigeria, Senegal and Cameroon as a basis. This is an opportunity to explore the way in which migrant Husa have built communities and diasporas, created modernity and negotiated personal identity in the context of neoliberal globalization.

Niger, as it is called, has one layer above the other, but the period from 1970 to 1988 is best associated with the economic boom of the 1990s, when Niger's economy boomed, driven by revenues from the Arlit uranium mine. Niamey continued to grow, attracting traders from neighboring Nigeria. However, trade was hampered by poor roads in the region, which were often impassable during the rainy season.

To make matters worse, Niamey, where the number of rivers and streams and population have increased in recent years, does not have adequate sanitation infrastructure. As the flood damage occurred, more and more damage and casualties associated with intense rainfall and runoff in urban areas were reported. The situation at sites near the stream shows that anopheles tend to reproduce in upstream areas (p. 0.004).
