The Government of Liberia (GOL), with the support of the UNDP, is designing a project to protect vulnerable coastal communities and infrastructure in the Monrovia Metropolitan Area (MMA) from the impacts of climate change induced sea level rise (SLR) and related extreme weather events. Global climate models project a SLR in Liberia of 0.13-0.56 m by the 2090s (relative to 1980-1999). Monrovia is extremely vulnerable to SLR and there is a critical need to develop protection measures to reduce the impacts of climate change.
