Many citizens are compelled to do risky, dangerous jobs, such as the granite quarry workers in Parakou, who lack protective equipment and expose themselves to numerous diseases. They are appealing for government assistance and social support for better working conditions.

The city of Malanville, Benin, located at the border of Niger, has suffered annual flooding since 2007, leading to the destruction of homes, economic loss, and fatal casualties. Despite funding worth billions from international projects seeking solutions to curb the environmental damage, their efforts have yielded minimal results. The flood victims do not benefit from prevention measures, flood protection infrastructures, or efficient early warning systems. Deforestation, driven by agricultural activities and climate change, contributes to this flood menace. The report suggests the building of a 100 km long dike, alongside collaborative efforts with Niger, as potential lasting solutions to the flood crisis.
