Niger
Republic of Niger
Niger is a major uranium producer (Orano/SOMAIR operations in Arlit) and emerging oil producer from the Agadem field (CNPC). The economy depends on subsistence agriculture, livestock, and mining. Following the July 2023 military coup and ECOWAS sanctions, Niger has reoriented its international partnerships. The country has one of the world's youngest populations (median age 15) and lowest HDI rankings. Uranium and oil exports, along with gold mining, remain the primary revenue sources.

Climate Readiness Full ranking
How this is computed
Adaptive capacity to absorb climate finance and adapt, following the readiness dimension of the ND-GAIN framework. Built only from measured values already held on each country profile. It is not a measure of emissions or physical climate vulnerability, which the platform does not yet hold.
- Energy access (30%) — World Bank, access to electricity (% of population). The single most climate and energy specific signal held: SDG 7 and the clean-energy transition.
- Governance readiness (20%) — Transparency International, Corruption Perceptions Index (0-100). ND-GAIN governance readiness: the capacity to govern and deploy climate finance. Higher is cleaner.
- Human readiness (20%) — UNDP, Human Development Index (0-1). ND-GAIN social readiness: the adaptive capacity of the population.
- Economic readiness (15%) — World Bank, GDP per capita (current US$), latest measured year. ND-GAIN economic readiness: the capacity to finance adaptation. Scored relative to the covered set.
- Digital readiness (15%) — World Bank, individuals using the Internet (% of population). Information systems for early warning and adaptation.
A country is scored only when at least 4 of the five indicators are held. Sub-scores are weighted and renormalised over the indicators that are present; nothing is estimated for one that is absent.
