Enhancing Community Resilience Tender

STATUSApprovedDATE APPROVED06 Oct 2021 at B.30 ESS CATEGORYCategory BWater security is a key issue for Kenya. The country has limited freshwater and faces chronic water scarcity and high rainfall variability which are worsened by climate change impacts. The Athi River Catchment is the least water-secure region in the country with most of its tributaries having significantly reduced or dried-up river flows. Due to the reduced availability of surface water reliance on groundwater has increased to meet the water demand. The project aims to increase water security and strengthen communities resilience to climate change in Kenyas Upper Athi River Catchment area. This will involve integrated water resources management and investment in water supply infrastructure in four vulnerable counties. Interventions include hydrological and meteorological information management installation and rehabilitation of water infrastructure and strengthening planning and regulatory frameworks for water resource managementGCF financing0 disbursedINSTRUMENTAMOUNT GrantUSD 9526603TOTAL GCF FINANCINGUSD 9526603CofinancingCOFINANCERINSTRUMENTAMOUNT Co-FinancingIn-kindUSD 242560 Co-FinancingIn-kindUSD 220820 Co-FinancingIn-kindUSD 10000TOTAL CO-FINANCINGUSD 473380Ms. Wangare KirumbaNIEAE CoordinatorP.O.
