  • Contrary to popular conception, Lake Chad is not shrinking; new research shows that the volume of water in the lake has increased since its low point in the 1980s.
  • However, more intense rain in the region, coupled with the impacts of historic drought, increases the risk of flooding.
  • The region is also plagued by continuing conflict and insecurity, making to harder for people to adapt to the impacts of climate change.
  • A Lutheran World Federation project is working with communities in the Lake Chad Basin on sustainable agriculture and fisheries, land restoration, conflict resolution and more.
