The Challenge

Kenya has developed comprehensive climate mitigation strategies across energy, transport, and environmental sectors under its National Climate Change Action Plan 2023-2027.

The Gap

However, it lacks a comprehensive framework to routinely monitor and quantify health co-benefits of current or future mitigation actions to access financing and drive climate action.
