dcterms.abstract | Kenya’s unique geographical location and diverse ecosystems make it highly vulnerable to various climate hazards, including floods, droughts, landslides, and cyclones. These hazards significantly impact the country's economy, livelihoods, and natural resources, emphasizing the need for robust adaptation measures, early warning systems, and sustainable climate-smart policies to ensure resilience and sustainable development. To address these challenges, the Climate-Smart Governance (CSG) Dashboard has been introduced as an advanced platform providing accurate data on climate-related hazards, population vulnerabilities, projected scenarios, and sector-specific information. This includes insights into agriculture, water, health, ecosystems, and infrastructure. Developed under the CGIAR Initiative on Climate Resilience (ClimBeR), the CSG Dashboard supports Kenya’s National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process under the UNFCCC, enhancing adaptive capacity and integrating climate strategies into national and local policies. The homepage offers an overview of the project, collaborative partners, and statistical data. Users register to access country-specific information. The landing page of the Kenya CSG dashboard includes sections on About Us, Our Team, Resources, Language, and Login. The platform consists of eight main sub-pages for Kenya: Country Overview, Climate Outlook, Project Tracker, Geo Intelligence Tools, Monitoring and Evaluation, Development Indicators, Adaptation Catalog, and Investment Portfolio Planning. The "View More" option facilitates users' navigation through these modules for detailed information. Key modules include the Country Overview, which comprehensively analyses Kenya’s socio-economic and environmental landscape. It highlights critical statistics, such as a population of 55.1 million (2023), undernourishment rates of 36.1% (2020), and forest coverage of 6.34% (2020). The Project Tracker monitors 35 projects benefiting 3.89 million people with $4.22 billion in funding, focusing primarily on adaptation. The Climate Risk Visualizer provides a detailed assessment of Kenya's climate risks, highlighting a total risk score of 6.7. This is broken into components: Hazard & Exposure (8.5), Vulnerability (6.1), and Lack of Coping Capacity (5.8). This tool enables users to analyze hazards, exposure, vulnerability, and coping limitations, offering insights critical for risk reduction strategies. The Sectoral Climate Impact page focuses on key areas such as Agriculture and Food Security, Water Resources, Coastal Zones and Ecosystems, Infrastructure, and Human Health. It visualizes the climate stressors and risks impacting each sector, aiding in identifying priority areas for adaptation and mitigation efforts in Kenya. According to the Kenya CSG dashboard, Kenya's climate future is marked by a rising temperature trend. Average temperatures are projected to reach 26.21°C under the SSP2.6 scenario and 28.68°C under the SSP8.5 scenario by 2100, emphasizing the urgency of targeted climate resilience measures. Kenya's Climate-Smart Governance (CSG) Dashboard provides detailed insights into the distribution of climate investments and projects across sectors, hazards, and regions. The project summary highlights significant resource allocation within 21 adaptation projects, with water receiving the largest share (31.8%), followed by agriculture (16.6%), livestock and energy (14.6% each), biodiversity (14.4%), and multi-sector initiatives (7.2%). The CSG system employs a hierarchical user role and access framework to ensure effective platform management. This includes roles such as Super Admin, National Admin, State/Provincial Admin, and District/Sub-district Level Admins. Each role is tailored with specific responsibilities, and primary users have limited access to reporting and viewing purposes, ensuring efficient operation across administrative levels. | en |
