L ' objectif de ce papier est d ' évaluer l ' effet de l ' aide publique au développement dans l ' atténuation des effets de la variabilité climatique sur la sécurité alimentaire des pays de l ' Afrique de l ' ouest. En utilisant les données de panel sur 14 pays au cours de la période de 1990 à 2016, les résultats des estimations économétriques révèlent que l ' effet négatif de la variabilité des précipitations sur l ' approvisionnement alimentaires des pays de la zones ' atténue indirectement avec l ' aide publique au développement. Par ailleurs, l ' aide publique au développement quant à elle seule semble n ' avoir pas d ' effet significatif sur l ' approvisionnement alimentaire des pays de la zone essentiellement agricole. Ainsi, l ' aide publique au développement constitue un facteur d ' atténuation des effets du changement climatique et devrait être plus considérer dans les politiques d ' adaptation au changement climatique afin de réduire les effets de ce dernier sur la sécurité alimentaire des pays de la zone.

The objective of this paper is to assess the effect of official development assistance in the mitigation of climate variability on food security in West African. Using panel data from 14 countries over the period 1990 to 2016, the results of econometric estimates show that the negative effect of rainfall variability on food supply in the countries of the region is indirectly reduced with official development assistance. Moreover, official development assistance alone does not seem to have a significant effect on the food supply of countries in this region. Thus, official development assistance is a factor that helps to mitigate the effects of climate change and should be given greater consideration in climate change adaptation policies in order to reduce the effects of climate change on food security in the countries of the region.(original abstract)
