National Treasury outlines how counties will share Ksh10B, an allocation for Climate Change Fund from the World Bank

Treasury Cabinet Secretary Njuguna Ndung’u announced the disbursement of Ksh10 billion as an allocation for county-level climate change mitigation efforts. 

According to a Gazette Notice released on Friday, Ndung’u identified 47 counties and the funds assigned to each for fiscal year 2023/24. 

Mombasa and Nairobi were left off of the funding list, as both counties received Ksh 0. 

The Ksh10 billion in funding came from three sources: the World Bank’s International Development Association (IDA), the German government, and the County Contribution.
