Climate Change and Marsabit County

Located in Northern Kenya, Marsabit County has experienced extreme vagaries of climate change. Communities in this county, depend on pastoralism and small- scale agriculture. The changing rainfall patterns have resulted into recurring drought and flooding. As communities seek to survive, deforestation, overgrazing and exploitation of natural resources have become the norm.

Solutions for Climate Change

To address the effects of climate change, the Marsabit County Assembly passed the Marsabit County Climate Change Fund Act 2020 that seeks to allocate development funds at ward level to address projects that help communities cope with climate change challenges. This is how it works: Communities identify their Ward Climate Change Planning Committees. These committees receive projects from the communities. Then they channel them to County Climate Change Planning Committee while the County Climate Change Fund Steering Committee, provides oversight for the whole process.
