Highlights

The Kenya Subnational Children Climate Risk Index-Disaster Risk Model (CCRI-DRM) is a dashboard for assessing risk to Kenyan children, both in terms of exposure and vulnerability. The dashboard is a powerful tool for identifying risks associated with climate and environmental shocks and stresses.

The interactive dashboard shows you how children face risks in different counties. This information helps efforts toward child-centred climate change adaptation, planning and resilience building. This allows users to prioritize programming to be tailored to underlying vulnerabilities (such as health, WASH and nutrition) and to the exposures (e.g. drought, floods) of children in Kenyan counties.

UNICEF supported the development of the dashboard for Kenya in partnership with the Climate Change Directorate of the Kenyan government.
