Living in Guinea Bissau
Guinea-Bissau is a West African country with an Atlantic coastline and lying between Guinea to the south and Senegal in the north. The state was previously a colony of Portugal but gained recognised independence in 1974. However, since that point politics in Guinea-Bissau has been rather unstable with military coups occurring, most recently in 2012. As the country’s rather fragmented, rough coastline suggests, Guinea-Bissau is a very low-lying country and consists primarily of mangrove swamps. The climate experienced in the country is generally characterised by consistent hot temperatures, heavy rainfall in UK summer months and drought in UK winter months, which can lead to problems for agriculture such as poor soil fertility and overgrazing. The country has the World’s lowest Human Development Index, which is an overall measure of health, social and economic wellbeing. 66% of the country’s 1,815,000 people live in poverty. Recently, there has also been increasing activity by drug cartels n the country for trafficking purposes; something that currently, the government is doing little to address. There is great ethnic diversity in Guinea-Bissau, and the number of languages spoken reaches double figures. Just over two thirds of the population identify as Christian, with the other third being Islamic.
