Kisumu County Unveils Climate Change Committees

Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o has launched the Climate Change and Environment Committees at the ward level to play a critical role in addressing the challenges of climate change in Kisumu County. The development of the Rapid Climate Change Act 2020, Nyong’o noted, is one of the positive achievements the county has made to build a robust understanding of climate risk and uncertainty. “The Ward Climate Change Planning Committees are expected to encourage people to participate fully in the planning, budgeting, and implementation of local climate change and adaptation projects,” Nyong’o said. He further pointed out that climate change has had devastating effects on communities. Notably, Prof. Nyong’o noted that the community members who understand these problems are the ones who can come up with homegrown solutions.

    Empowering community members to participate in climate action encourages ownership and a sense of responsibility.

                    @saustine_lusanzu counties should borrow from this. By making the county a better place,overtime the whole country will be making great progress. A county can work independently too without relying on the "big fish".
