Abstract/ Overview
Climate change is happening now and is projected to worsen in the future. Siaya County is extremely susceptible to impacts of a changing climate because most livelihoods are reliant on climate sensitive sectors including agriculture, fisheries and trade in agricultural products. Moreover, majority of county residents still rely on biomass to meet their energy needs. Social infrastructure is equally affected by floods, thereby affecting communities who are already underserved by health, water, schools, social halls and associated infrastructure. In order to cushion key sectors against the impact of climate change, the stakeholders have come up with Siaya County Climate Change Action Plan (2023-2027). The plan has identified sectoral adaptation needs and also details specific sectoral actions plans, key implementing partners and indicative costs. This Action Plan is complementary and consistent with existing strategies at the county, national, regional and international levels as well as development and economic plans, principally the Siaya County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP; 2023-2027) that will resource its implementation.
