Who We Are
The West Africa Center for Global Environmental & Occupational Health (WACGEOH) brings together faculty with a wide range of expertise committed to addressing the most pressing environmental and occupational health challenges facing West and Central Africa. These include issues such as environmental degradation, air pollution, waste generation, and their adverse impacts on human health and economic development.
Our work is anchored in an understanding that the region’s natural resource exploitation, climate change, land degradation, rapid urbanization, and increased human-animal interactions have created complex health and socioeconomic challenges. WACGEOH strives to be at the forefront of research and policy development aimed at finding sustainable, science-driven solutions to these issues.
