A vast literature has accumulated on land use and society in West African drylands, the ‘greening’ of the Sahel and the implications of climate change. Yet the paper remains still relevant.

In general, drought is a temporal reduction of environmental moisture status relative to the mean state. Because of the complexity of drought, it is often studied only by separate aspects of the phenomenon (e.g. meteorological drought, soil drought, etc.). Hence, approaches to

Created in following the terrible drought crisis in the Sahel, the Permanent Inter-State Committee for Drought Control in the Sahel (CILSS) is a leading actor in the fight against food and nutrition insecurity and desertification in the Sahel and beyond.
Over the past 40 years, it has accumulated a large technical and scientific expertise comite permanent inter-etats de lutt"e contre la secheresse dans le sahel permanent interstate committee for drought control in the sahel comitÉ permanente inter-estados de luta contra a seca no Its mission is to be involved in the research of food security and to combat the effects of drought and desertification for better ecological stability.

Moreover, the vulnerability of rainfed crop production systems to drought is worsened by soil degradation, low resilience levels due to poverty and inability to implement effective risk mitigation strategies (FAO ).
An urgent humanitarian crisis has gripped the Sahel, where more than 18 million people are currently at risk of food insecurity and hunger. Poor rains last year and a resulting drought has plunged a huge swatch of land in the Sahel into crisis.

[Programme allemand CILSS.; R M Rochette; Permanent Inter-State Committee for Drought Control in the Sahel.; Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit.]. The drought in the Sahel has led to the formation of 2 cooperative regional organizations: Comite permanent Interetats de Lutte contre la Secheresse dans le Sahel (CILSS, formed by the Sahel states) and the Club de Sahel (formed by donors and the Sahel countries).
These organizations have attempted to help the Sahel to attain regional food self-sufficiency and to make the region less Economic impact of drought and inflation in the Sahel.
