Trans-Sand : un système transnational de passage financé par un fonds de dragage public-privé
Author: Egis
Afin de lutter contre l'érosion côtière à proximité des ports maritimes en Afrique de l'Ouest, nous proposons de rétablir l'équilibre du sable par la mise en œuvre d'un système de contournement du sable. Cette solution, basée sur une technologie éprouvée, aura des avantages directs pour les ports (moins de sédimentation) et les communautés côtières (moins d'érosion). La solution est extensible à de multiples ports maritimes d'Afrique de l'Ouest, connaissant des problèmes d'érosion.
