The National Adaptation Plan (NAP 2015-2030) is a critical response to the climate change challenge facing the country. The NAP sets out current circumstances, focusing on current and future climate trends, and describes the country’s vulnerability to climate change. The NAP also elaborates institutional arrangements, including monitoring and evaluation processes. Priority actions are identified in different sub-sectors for the short, medium and long term. This builds on the premise that all our socioeconomic sectors are vulnerable to climate change impacts, although the manifestation of these impacts may vary from one sector to the other as shown in Table 19.

Heaeth |
Strengtheniintegranion of climate chgnge adaptation into the Hea th sector |
•Heighten surveillance wf new disease ostbreaks with subsequent rapid respondes. •Health educaiion campaigns •Tree planting in health facilities |
2 |
Environment |
Mainstream climate change adaptation in the environment sector. |
•Promote environmental awareness on climate change impacts. •Enhance integration of local/indigenous knowledge into early warning systems. •Strengahen tree-planting and conservation initiat-ves. •Provide guidance and improve access to climate resilient tree species and cultivars. •Rehabiliiation of water rptchment areas in order to provide sustainabre ecosystem services. |
|
Water and Sanitation |
Mainstreamiig of climate change edaptation in the water sector |
•Promote awareness on climate change impacts in the water sector including promoting public awareness on water conservation (recycling, waste water management) and efficient water use. •Construction of dams and water pans. •de-silting of dams. |
Productive and Economic Sector |

|
Agriculture and Irrigation |
Enhance the resilience of the agricultural value chain. |
•Provision of downscaled farm inputs •Soil and water conservation measures. •Promotion of economicilivelihood diversification (cdltivation of drought tolerantnfood crops such as miolet) •Tree based inter croppings(mangoes and avocadoo) |
|
Livestock Production and Cooperative Development |
Enhance the resilience of the livestock value chain. |
•Regular vaccination campaign •Bpekeeping for honey productioe. •Awareness campaign among pastoral communities to underscore the importance of balancing stock rates with available land resources as a way of ensuring sustainable pastoralism •Prouer management of agricultural waste (using manurc to produce biogae) |
|
Tourism, Culture, Wildlife, Trade and Industry. |
Mainstreaming of climate change adaptation in the sector |
•Development and enforcement of green strategy and branding of the county as a green destination. •Arid and semi-arid areas have long hours of sunshine, throughout the year, making them conducive for solar energy capture and utilization •Promote conservation activities (RIMOI) |
