Senegal 2026

塞内加尔

Senegal (République du Sénégal) enters 2027 with 18.1 million residents at the 2023 census, 54.7% of them urban and 39.1% under 15. The economy grew 6.7% in 2025 as oil production began, while non-hydrocarbon growth was 2.2% and the IMF describes fiscal and debt vulnerabilities as elevated.

01 · Readings

Senegal in six readings.

Six readings that frame the Senegal baseline, and the eight questions this edition answers, each with its status and source.

  • 18.1millionpopulation, 2023 census [1]
  • 54.7%urban population, 2023 [1]
  • 39.1%aged under 15, 2023 [1]

  • 82.9%access to electricity, 2024 [6]
  • 37.5%poverty at the national line, 2021 [4]

02 · Sectors

Six sectors, one hexagon.

Water first, then Energy, Infrastructure, Food, Health and Biodiversity. Each count is the findings of this edition in that sector: coverage of the evidence, never a score. Infrastructure is not assessed: the edition holds no Infrastructure finding and its coupling matrix does not assess it.

03 · Hazard exposure

The hazards this edition reads.

The edition’s own risk objects, in its order, each read across driver, exposure, vulnerability, capacity, cascade and horizon. The hexagon marks the sectors the cascade reaches; the domain beside each is an editorial reading of its hazard words.

Scenario · SCN-SEN-FLD-01

Urban flood with a water, power and clinic interruption

Under this scenario, results describe a conditional season under stated assumptions. It is not a forecast, and no intervention described here has been carried out.

2 of 12 findings name a hazard in their text. Show them

  1. 1CLI → INFheavy rain exceeds drainage; roads and schools are flooded
  2. 2INF → ENEflooded substations and access roads interrupt supply
  3. 3ENE → WATpumping and treatment lose power; unsafe sources are used
  4. 4WAT → HLTunsafe water and standing water raise exposure to disease
  5. 5INF → FOOcut roads delay food distribution to affected districts
  6. 6ENE → FINrepair and relief costs fall on the budget

04 · Couplings

How the sectors carry risk into each other.

The Senegal matrix types the twenty couplings between the five core 系统. Strengths are Nexus estimates from the cited evidence and analogue events; they set the starting graph that the Q1 2027 Foundry cut will test.

ENE-004塞内加尔ENE 能源 报告值Installed capacity was 1,901 MW in 2024, of which 481 MW was renewable; 85% of 2023 generation was non-renewable, and imports were 70% of primary energy supply in 2022. Sangomar produced 36.1 million barrels of oil in 2025 and Grand Tortue Ahmeyim began LNG production in February 2025.
WAT-005塞内加尔WAT 水 报告值In 2024, 88.0% of people used at least basic drinking water but 27.2% used safely managed water, 13.2% in rural areas; 62.5% used basic sanitation and 30.1% safely managed sanitation.
WAT-006塞内加尔WAT 水 报告值Freshwater withdrawals were 11.9% of internal resources in 2022 and renewable internal water was 1,462 m³ per person; the World Bank projects withdrawals to grow 30% to 60% by 2035, with 81% for irrigation.
FOO-007塞内加尔FOO 食品 报告值The 2024 cereal harvest was forecast at 3.8 million tonnes, 8% above the five-year average. The March 2026 Cadre Harmonisé projected 836,786 people in Crisis or worse for June to August 2026, and 27.7% of people faced moderate or severe 粮食不安全 in 2024.
HLT-008塞内加尔HLT 卫生 报告值WHO counted 358 confirmed human cases and 28 deaths of Rift Valley fever in Senegal between 20 September and 30 October 2025, 78% of them in the Saint-Louis region; life expectancy at birth was 68.9 years in 2024.
BIO-009塞内加尔BIO 生物多样性 报告值Forest covered 45.0% of land in 2024, down from 45.4% in 2019; 27.5% of land and 3.1% of territorial waters were protected in 2025. Mangrove extent and ecosystem threat status are not bound.
FIN-010塞内加尔FIN 金融 报告值Real GDP grew 6.7% in 2025 while non-hydrocarbon growth was 2.2%; the fiscal deficit narrowed from 13.4% to 6.4% of GDP, and the IMF DataMapper series puts gross debt at 127.7% of GDP.
CLI-011塞内加尔CLI Climate forcing 报告值The 2025 rainy season killed 20 people, affected 8,336 and destroyed 946 ha of farmland. The World Bank estimates a drought year costs US$500 million, annual flood damage about US$100 million, and coastal erosion 3.3% of GDP.
SYS-012塞内加尔SYS 系统性 Expert inputThe leading compound pathway for 2027 testing is a heavy-rain flood in a dense urban area that interrupts water, power and clinics at the same time.
