22nd Biannual Meeting
Compounding crises: combinations of vulnerabilities, risks and hazards in West Africa
4-6 December 2007
hosted by OCHA in Saly
The meeting considered how combinations of different kinds of hazards and risks (such as floods, droughts, conflicts or environmental degradation) and different vulnerabilities (social, political, geographic and economic) interact and combine to produce more complex and entrenched vulnerabilities, and how they then affect various elements of humanitarian action.
