Why UK and Kenya Climate Partnership Is Key CapitalFMKenya: Kenya
The UK is committed to alleviating the impacts of climate change in East Africa. We are doing this by working with partners, like Kenya, to deliver innovative solutions to the challenges climate change poses. Throughout its COP26 Presidency, the UK worked with partners across Africa to deliver and build on the Glasgow Climate Pact to see commitments made at COP26 turned into action. As the Prime Minister reaffirmed at COP27, the UK remains committed to spending £11.
The UK and Kenya have a long and exemplary partnership on climate change and green prosperity.
In addition to working with Kenya, the UK continues to work with likeminded partners, such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change , whose role is to inform the international community about the effects of climate change and advise on action to avert it. The UK is a champion of international climate change cooperation and action, and a proud supporter of the IPCC.
This week, the IPCC will be electing its new chairperson to take forward this most vital international agenda and help save our planet and its inhabitants. The UK has nominated Professor Jim Skea for the role of Chair of IPCC. Professor Skea is an exceptional candidate with extensive experience and unparalleled expertise who will bring both the leadership skills to bring countries together and the scientific credentials that the organisation needs build consensus and devise solutions.
Professor Skea recognises the importance of diverse voices in efforts to tackle climate change and its impact. He is committed to joining up different scientific disciplines, building consensus amongst governments, and connecting scientists around the world so that - together - we can strive for solutions to combat climate change.
