Kenya, like many African countries, has been struggling with the severe impacts of climate change. Floods and droughts threaten natural resources, food security, health, the economy and social stability, especially in its arid and semi-arid regions. Indigenous peoples, women and girls, and marginalized groups – already amongst the most vulnerable in society – are hit hardest.
The Voices for Just Climate Action (VCA) program in Kenya partnered with 10 local civil society organizations, from county to national level, and was implemented across the counties of Homabay, Kisumu, Marsabit, Isiolo, Kajiado, Mombasa, Lamu, Kwale, Kilifi, Tana River, Makueni and Nairobi.
In this publication, we reflect on the key achievements of our work.
