Caught between climate change and conflict: Voices from Kenya's West Pokot County

Caught between climate change and conflict: Voices from Kenya's West Pokot County

“Because of climate change, we have been impoverished by the frequent fights with our neighbours over grazing land” Living in an increasingly unpredictable climate has its consequences – not only on livelihoods but also on peace and understanding between vulnerable communities. Joshua, Jacklin, Philip, Hellen and Lawrence from Northern Kenya experience it first-hand. They cannot raise their concerns with the world leaders at COP29 in person, but we can make their voices heard loud and clear. Watch their story – like, share and comment to spread the word. There are ways to make #ClimateAdaptation work for these communities. Looking at climate finance and action through a peacebuilding lens is part of the solution.
