Introduction
The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) seeks to promote a food-secure world through the provision of science-based 
efforts that support sustainable agriculture and enhance livelihoods while adapting to climate change and conserving natural resources and environmental services.
Climate change is an unprecedented threat to the food security of hundreds of millions of people who depend on small-scale agriculture for their livelihoods. Climate 
change affects agriculture and food security, and likewise, agriculture and natural resource management affect the climate system.  
CCAFS has initially focused on three regions; East Africa (EA), West Africa (WA) and South Asia (SA) to carry out its research. The 15 CCAFS sites in these areas represent 
areas that are becoming both drier and wetter, and are focal locations that will generate results that can be applied and adapted to other regions worldwide.  In this 
year, 2013, CCAFS is expanding its portfolio to additional sites in Latin America and South-East Asia.
These sites serve as the initial focus of CCAFS partnership-building and long-term research activities falling within the following CCAFS Research Themes; Adaptation 
to Progressive Climate Change, Adaptation through Managing Climate Risk, Pro-Poor Climate Change Mitigation and Integration for Decision Making. At all 15 CCAFS 
sites, baseline surveys have been conducted, including three levels of data collection and analysis at household, village and organizational levels (see: 
http://ccafs.cgiar.org/resources/baseline-surveys).
More information on CCAFS work in all the three regions can be accessed at www.ccafs.cgiar.org
To better understand the CCAFS sites’ characteristics, a list of geospatial indicators for climate variability, bio-physical characteristics and socio-economic variables have 
been mapped into site atlases. 
This Atlas was developed for the CCAFS site at Kaffrine in Senegal, in West Africa Region.

The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) brings together the world’s best 
researchers in agricultural science, development research, climate science and Earth System science, to identify and address 
the most important interactions, synergies and tradeoffs between climate change, agriculture and food security. CCAFS is a 
strategic partnership of CGIAR and Future Earth, led by the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT).
