The National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP) III 2023 – 2027 is the third five-year plan that presents the detailed priority actions that Kenya will embark on to address climate change in the medium-term planning period and contribute to the achievement of our NDC under the Paris Agreement. Its development has involved deliberate consultations with the youth and children’s representatives.
NCCAP 2023–2027 proposes priority actions for implementation over the five-year period. These actions are classified in eight (8) Climate Change Priority Areas: Disaster Risk Management; Food Security and Nutrition; Water, Fisheries and the Blue Economy; Forestry, Wildlife and Tourism; Health and Human Settlements; Manufacturing; Energy and Transport; and Children and the Youth. The priority actions, building on achievements from the 2018–2022 period, propose adaptation and mitigation interventions, as well as enabling actions to facilitate their implementation. An implementation matrix has been prepared for each priority area, with an estimated budget that will guide execution. Each Climate Change Priority Area has a set of discrete National Indicators, as well as Key Performance Indicators to enable tracking and reporting of progress over the 2023–2027 period.
