This publication is the result of the project “Governance and Security in the Sahel: Tackling Mobility, Demography and Climate Change”, conducted by the Foundation for European Progressive Studies (FEPS) based in Brussels and the Istituto Affari Internazionali (IAI) based in Rome together with the National Democratic Institute (NDI), Washington, DC and with the support of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, and of the European Parliament.

This research analyses the factors underpinning good governance in the Sahel, and it explores how the quality of governance is influenced by and can affect the management of demographic changes, climate change and mobility. Each chapter also sets out some recommendations for local and international stakeholders.
