just a few decades. Its rapid population growth, estimated at several hundred thousand new inhabitants per year, is fuelling continuous urbanisation. The city extends both onto the mainland, where high density, strained infrastructure and often informal housing coexist, and onto the islands, where secure residential neighbourhoods and economic hubs are multiplying. This expansion is putting pressure on transport networks, natural resources and lagoon ecosystems. Chronic traffic congestion, pollution and vulnerability to rising sea levels make Lagos a prime example of the environmental challenges associated with hyper-urban growth.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br

the climate crisis, from the Congo Basin to the Arctic Circle. In Lagos, a stopover point on their migration, students, artists and residents come together to discuss aquatic life and the environmental challenges facing the lagoon.<\/p>\n<p>During participatory workshops led by LASWA (the city&#8217;s maritime transport authority) and artists Qudus Onilekun, Ochai Ogaba and Jelili Atiku, young people choose the marine animal they want to represent. They bring to life 30 life-size puppets of hammerhead sharks, emblems of biodiversity threatened by rapid urbanisation. These sessions combine artistic creation with dialogue on climate change, species preservation and the relationship between city and nature.<\/p>\n<p>The puppets then take to the streets of the city: wandering through the streets, a great march of savannah animals and public performances invite people to see Lagos in a different light. The project culminates at the Lekki Conservation Centre, where artists, students and local stakeholders engage in a lively dialogue on the ecological future of the city. Through artistic expression, knowledge sharing and civic engagement, each puppet becomes a symbol of awakening and a vibrant tribute to the fragile richness of the lagoon.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mbcx0u-75d9b16af2ea0e54b77f056fc353558e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-mbcx0u-75d9b16af2ea0e54b77f056fc353558e{\nheight:40px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-mbcx0u-75d9b16af2ea0e54b77f056fc353558e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-32  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_codeblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<!--close column table wrapper.
