      abstract     = {The Republic of Niger is facing crises that are mutually
                      reinforcing: climatecrises, inflation, debt crises and
                      deglobalisation, which are hitting rural areasparticularly
                      hard. Rural development – a key issue of sustainable
                      development- in Niger is linked to thirteen UN SDGs. A
                      household survey was organised toassess the
                      socio-environmental-economic conditions of a small village
                      in ruralNiger. Twenty percent of the households are
                      smallholders, $15\%$ large farmers,one household is nomadic,
                      and $62\%$ subsistence farmers. The household surveyalso
                      provides information on the structure of agricultural
                      production in differenthouseholds, energy and water
                      consumption, and the impact of climate change
                      onECONOMICS25living conditions. The results of these
                      household survey will be mapped againstthe rural SDGs, their
                      targets, and indicators to provide a holistic picture
                      ofsustainable rural development in West Africa, using the
                      example of rural Niger.The lessons from rural Niger can be
                      applied not only to West Africa, but to alldeveloping
                      countries facing similar challenges, especially in rural
                      areas.Keywords: rural economics, household survey, SDGs},
