The Republic of Côte d’Ivoire, popularly known as Ivory Coast, is a nation on the southern tip of West Africa. The country’s major city and commercial hub is the port city of Abidjan, while Yamoussoukro, in the country’s center, serves as its political capital. It bordered by Guinea to the northwest, Liberia to the west, Mali to the northwest, Burkina Faso to the northeast, Ghana to the east, and the Gulf of Guinea (Atlantic Ocean) to the south. Ivory Coast is slightly smaller than Poland or slightly larger than the U.S. state of New Mexico, with a total area of 322,463 km2.
Its official language is French, but native tongues such Bété, Baoulé, Dioula, Dan, Anyin, and Cebaara Senufo are also commonly spoken. Ivory Coast is home to a population of about 78 distinct language speakers. It has population of about 28,713,423 persons. The population of the nation is religiously varied, with many people practicing indigenous religions, Christianity, and Islam.
Ivory Coast had high levels of revenue for its region in 2020 and was the top exporter of cocoa beans worldwide. The Ivorian economy is still primarily dependent on agriculture in the twenty-first century, with smallholder cash-crop production predominating.

TRIBES IN IVORY COAST AND THEIR FASHION
The Baoulé
This is one of the major ethnic groups in Côte d’Ivoire and an Akan people, the Baule or Baoulé originally migrated from what is now Ghana. The Baoulé are traditionally farmers who reside in the triangle-shaped territory between the Bandama and N’Zi rivers in the center of Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast). The areas surrounding the cities of Bouaké and Yamoussoukro are included in this region in a wide sense. The Baoulé wore a wooden helmet that stands for a buffalo. Then they wore suits with raffia and metal bracelets for the ankles.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND HABITAT PROTECTION IN IVORY COAST
 Côte d’Ivoire has placed environmental health and good natural resource governance at the center of its agenda for sustainable development and conflict prevention. The country boasts extraordinary biodiversity, large mineral riches, and significant money from cocoa and other exports. By performing impartial scientific studies of the environment in the nation using sampling, remote sensing, and institutional review, UN Environment has been assisting the Government of Côte d’Ivoire to fulfill this aim.
In addition to 4,700 plant species, the Ivory Coast is home to over 1,200 animal species, including 223 mammals, 702 birds, 125 reptiles, 38 amphibians, and 111 fish species. The majority of the country’s animal population resides in the arid interior, making it the most biodiverse country in West Africa. Nine national parks exist in the country, the largest of which is Assgny National Park, which covers around 17,000 hectares (42,000 acres) of land.

EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN IVORY COAST
 The extent of climate change and Côte d’Ivoire’s lack of planning to deal with this phenomenon make the nation particularly vulnerable. Rising sea levels, far more erratic rainfall, and hotter average temperatures have already been noted. Sea levels in the Greater Bassam and Abidjan regions might increase by up to 1.2 metres if nothing is done.
There will be more flooded areas, which will cause a significant number of fatalities as well as the forced evacuation of many families and businesses. The loss of homes, roads, schools, and medical facilities may also have an impact on infrastructure.
The Ivorian economy’s main engine, agriculture, is extremely susceptible to climatic fluctuations. Currently, Côte d’Ivoire is the world’s top producer and exporter of cocoa, which generates close to five million people’s direct and indirect income, almost one-third of export earnings, and more than 10% of tax revenues. The effects of climate change will still have an influence on the industry, particularly rising temperatures that could dry up the soil and impair its fertility, prompting many farmers to transfer their crops to higher ground where temperatures are better for growing cocoa.

GENDER EQUALITY IN IVORY COAST
According to United Nations Population Fund, formerly the United Nations Fund for Population Activities, UNFPA, only 9% of women in the Ivory Coast between the ages of 20 and 24 receive any education, and 27% of those who had access to primary education were already married or living together at that age. More than one-third of Ivorian females under the age of 18 are coerced into marriage.
