Zusammenfassung
  • The political economy analysis of climate change interventions in Kenya has been undertaken in reference to the constitutional focus on pursuit of sustainable development, the impacts of climate change, the role of various stakeholders, and how various strategic actions could be executed. This political economy analysis concurs that in order to have a win-win outcome, or a result where most of the stakeholders benefit from climate change action, Kenya needs to pursue the prioritization of adaptation to climate change, and the explicit embracing of building resilience and enhancing adaptive capacity as critical steps to dealing with the vulnerability resulting from the adverse impacts of climate change. This does not mean the country will not implement mitigation actions. In addition, Kenya will need to enhance application of the mainstreaming approach as the mechanism for delivering on climate change actions. This is an approach that requires operationalization of the complex institutional framework at the national and county government level to support the mainstreaming of climate change actions.
