People are exceedingly vulnerable to shocks in supply chains caused by economic or digital disruptions, extreme weather events, or most recently the COVID 19 pandemic. As concerns specifically climate hazards (see figure 2 below), the most damaging to Cabo Verde are estimated to be drougts, floods, land slides, forest fires, sea-level rise, coast and beach erosion and epidemics. To this add the non-climate related hazards such as volcanic and seismic activities.
